Security guard shoots co-worker during car parking quarrel
Kaieteur News – A security guard on Thursday had to undergo surgery at a city hospital to remove a bullet from just above his knee after he was shot by his co-worker while they were on duty at the Ramada Princess Hotel, Providence, East Bank Demerara (EBD).
The Ramada Princess Hotel where the shooting took place.
The injured security guard was identified as Junior Mohan, 30, and he was shot around 15:50hrs. According to police, Mohan and his 27-year-old co-worker reportedly had an argument over cars that were parked in the hotel’s driveway.
They are both employed by a security company based on Sherriff Street and were performing their duties together protecting the hotel when some cars reportedly parked in the driveway.
Kaieteur News understands that one of the men did not want the cars to be parked there, while the other, did not have a problem with it. The two men reportedly began arguing over the cars and Mohan’s colleague got annoyed with him.
Their argument escalated and the co-worker used his company’s Glock 19 pistol to shoot Mohan. The bullet reportedly struck to the leg just above the knee. A police corporal who was also on duty at the hotel heard the shot and when he found out what had happened, he arrested the co-worker and took away the gun.
Mohan was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) where he underwent surgery to remove the bullet.
Investigators have since taken statements from eyewitnesses who witnessed the shooting and have footage of the incident from the hotel’s security cameras.
A 9mm spent shell has also been recovered from the scene. Investigations continue.
