Taxi driver shot by female “passenger”

Dec 03, 2012 News

In what can be deemed a very strange occurrence, taxi driver Dale Cameron was shot in his head and left leg at around 21:00 hrs last night by a female ‘passenger’.
The incident occurred at Crane, West Coast Demerara. The wounds did not appear to be life threatening.
Cameron, 39, of 130 Belle West, West Bank Demerara reportedly told investigators that he picked up a woman who was dressed in black , at Blankenburg.
He said the woman requested to be dropped off in Crane. However, while approaching the turn at Crane, Cameron said the woman pulled out a gun and shot him twice. Cameron sustained a gunshot wound behind his left ear which exited through the right side of his neck and another gunshot wound to his left foot.
The man also told investigators that after being shot he drove the car into a nearby canal and the woman quickly exited and ran away.
Nothing was taken away from the injured man, who made his way to the Vreed-en-Hoop Police Station in a taxi where he made a report.
Cameron then went to the West Demerara Regional Hospital and was subsequently referred to the Georgetown Public Hospital.
