Police said that 31-year old Kwesi Fernandes of Two Friends Village, East Coast Demerara was treated at the Georgetown hospital for a gunshot wound to his right forearm which he sustained during a confrontation with a licensed firearm holder.
According to the police, licensed firearm holder Eon Evans, 38 years of Victoria, also on the East Coast of Demerara, and his brother, were imbibing at the Ann’s Grove Market Square when they became involved in an argument with a female.
