Marks reportedly ran and jumped into the nearby Demerara River. He subsequently started running to get to the Linden Hospital Complex but collapsed in front of the home of a resident of Watooka, which is almost a mile away.
The woman said that she quickly threw a sheet on the back seat, helped him inside then drove him to the hospital.
“He kept muttering how he wanted to end the relationship but that the woman was unwilling to let go.”
The suspect is much older than Marks with children of her own.
Marks kept ranting that he wants children and that she cannot give him any, his rescuer said.
The reputed wife is presently in police custody assisting with investigations.
Marks has since been transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital.
