Investigations are ongoing concerning an incident that took place last Sunday evening around 20:30hrs (08:30pm) when a 16-year-old was shot. At the time she was accompanied by her parents and her 17-year-old friend.
On their way home from church, they were greeted by an identifiable male who was armed with a handgun on the Westminster Access Road,.
The teenager, Lovern Pryce, of Recht Door Zee, Canal No.1, West Bank Demerara , was confronted by the gunman who instructed them not to move. He allegedly pointed the gun at her friend’s neck when she decided to stand in front of her and was shot to her upper right shoulder.
The suspect immediately left the scene in a car which was parked within short proximity of the incident.
Pryce was taken to the West Demerara Regional Hospital where she was treated and eventually transferred and admitted to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC).
