Newspaper vendor suspected killed
Shock and disbelief gripped the Wismar, Linden community of One Mile as news spread of the suspected murder of popular newspaper vendor, Albert Ashby, popularly known as ‘Finny’.
The body of the middle aged man, was last evening removed from his residence and taken to the Linden Hospital Complex.
According to sketchy reports Ashby was earlier robbed by a youth, who ran away leaving his slippers behind.
The man had been vending newspapers for more than two decades, according to reports.
“Finny was a simple easy going chap. At first was he and he wife used to sell papers, then she died and he continued the business alone. But he never used to trouble nobody, so I don’t know who would want to kill him”, one man pointed out.
A former employer said that Finny once worked with him as a security guard, before he became involved in the newspaper business.
