The hunt is on for a murder suspect only identified as “Short boss” who allegedly gunned down 21-year-old Ronsley Clarke, a mason of Timehri, East Bank Demerara, in Sophia on Thursday night, while he was at a party with his girlfriend.
Clarke and “Short boss” who knew each other, were at a dance on the night in question at “Blacka’s Shop”. Clarke was with his girlfriend, Alisha Thomas. The woman said that everybody was “having a nice time, drinking and smoking”, when shots started to ring out. She said her boyfriend ran a short distance after the shots were fired, and dropped a short distance away.
One witness to the shooting said, “the man had a shine gun, the man draw, and buss ‘bout three shot in the banna. Everybody start fuh scatta. When we catch we self, the man girlfriend da hallering fuh he.” The suspect made good his escape just after committing the act.
Another individual who didn’t want to be named claimed the two man were known to each other, and just recently “had a falling out”. When asked as to what the “falling out” was about and when it occurred, the man said he didn’t want to get into that.
The police in a statement related that, “The victim who received two suspected gunshot wounds to the right region of his body, was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation in an unconscious state and was pronounced dead on arrival.”
