He was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
Benjamin’s mother, Lorriane, told Kaieteur News yesterday that she last saw her son on Sunday morning.
“He came by me and I made breakfast for he…I ain’t know that would have been the last time I would have seen him.”
According to the woman, she received a call from a female who told her that Benjamin was stabbed. Upon her arrival at the hospital her worst fears were confirmed.
Benjamin leaves to mourn his mother and six other siblings.
