Wismar man found dead with gunshot wound
A Wismar, Linden man was yesterday found at Seven Miles Ituni road, with what appeared to be a gunshot wound and other marks of violence about the body.
Dead: Linden McPherson
The man reportedly had dwelling places at both Nottinghamshire, Demerara River and Victory Valley at Wismar.
The discovery was made early yesterday. The body was subsequently taken to the Wismar mortuary where the man, 51-year-old Linden McPherson was positively identified by his identical twin brother, Llewellyn, and another relative.
His relatives were not too clear about the number of children he leaves to mourn, but said there were about eight or ten of them.
According to Llewellyn, he last saw his brother last week Monday. He said that his brother was a very peaceful and loving person, who had no problems with anyone. He was at a loss to explain why anyone would want him dead. The two brothers were said to be very close.
Linden had left to go to his farm almost a week ago, but that was not unusual according to his friend Tara Fredericks, who said that he would sometimes stay for a week or so.
He was reportedly expected to return home yesterday.
Tara Fredericks said that she has been sharing a relationship with him over the past two years and like others, was perplexed as to the motive behind the killing.
Police are investigating.
