Dead is Patrick Wilson, 25 of Lot 5 Limlair Village, Corentyne, Berbice.
According to reports there was an argument between Wilson and the suspect at a liquor shop in the village when the accused whipped out a knife and stabbed Wilson to the right side stomach. The incident reportedly stemmed from the suspect accusing a cousin of Wilson of “talking his name”. Wilson intervened in the matter and was attacked.
Mother of the dead man, Camilla Surujmohan, 53, said she received a call from another son informing her that Wilson was involved in a fight that resulted in him being stabbed.
“Around 11:00 last night (Sunday) I get the call saying he get bore up but I had to ask if is joke he mekkin because I was shocked. He seh get a car and come for he now. And he seh he serious so by time we rush out deh with the car he almost done dead,” she recalled.
Wilson was crouched on the ground a short distance from the liquor shop where he was stabbed. He reportedly ran after the suspect but he collapsed unconscious. He subsequently succumbed on the very spot where he fell.
Surujmohan explained that they visited the police station and returned to the scene with police ranks but they were told that they had to wait. It was until three hours later then they were able to take away the body.
She added that when she inquired about what took place she was told that “a bai bore he. Who is the bai l don’t know. All wa dem seh is that another cousin had an argument and the boy go to bore the cousin and the cousin run away so me son (Wilson) turn up and seh that how you can’t fight my cousin and the boy brace he up and start cuff he and bore he”.
Surujmohan stated that for the entire Sunday he was at home “drinking a red wine” but left to go out that night. “I never saw my son back until I see he lie down deh with blood all over”.
A post mortem is expected to be conducted shortly as investigations continue.
