According to a police report, a noise nuisance complaint was made via telephone against persons playing loud music at Façade, East Bank Essequibo (EBE).
Policemen responded, and upon arrival, ranks were greeted by loud music coming from the premises of the suspect. As the police entered the yard, they saw the woman and three other persons consuming alcohol. They warned the woman to turn off her music and she started shouting, “Shoot me, shoot me…” and cursing out the police.
According to the video, the police attempted to uplift the music set amplifier because the woman had refused to turn off the music; in response, the woman became aggressive and physically assaulted, abusing them with a series of expletives. Due to the woman’s behaviour, one of the officers’ phone was damaged.
