Man arrested after chopping spree

Apr 24, 2016 News

The police have arrested the man who chopped another man with whom he apparently had an old grievance. The man was attempting to flee the Region. He was arrested on one of the Chinese ferries which was headed to Parika.  Reports are that the suspect was heading for Bartica.
The victim, a 38-year-old Richmond Housing Scheme resident sustained a number of chop wounds to the back of his neck, his hand and back. The chop wounds to his back carried over fifty stitches.
According to reports, the accused and the victim were apparently imbibing at a liquor restaurant at Richmond Housing Scheme when an argument ensued between the duo. It was noted that the 27-year- old suspect dealt the victim a number of chops about his body in a heated rage.
The victim fell and lost consciousness. He was rescued two hours later by his brother who transported him to the Suddie Public Hospital. The parties are not related but they are from the same village. Charges are to be instituted against the suspect as soon as the victim is released from the hospital. (Yannason Duncan)
