-after shooting incident in Venezuela
Police are trying to ascertain how a 21-year-old Guyanese ended up dead at Port Kaituma with a gunshot injury he sustained in Venezuela.
The victim, identified as Keron Caleb, succumbed around 15.45 hrs yesterday, shortly after being taken to the Port Kaituma Hospital with a gunshot wound to the upper thigh.
A police official said that they have received reports that Caleb shot himself while playing with a firearm.
The incident occurred at an area in Venezuela which is some four hours drive from Port Kaituma. Caleb is said to have worked with a gold mining company in the Spanish-speaking territory.
A Port Kaituma resident said that Caleb was still alive and was communicating with his Guyanese counterparts who had brought him to Port Kaituma. However, his condition deteriorated and he died before he could receive treatment.
