Duo charged for Punt Trench Road shooting
Kaieteur News – Two men on Monday were remanded to prison in relation to a shoot out at Punt Trench Road, Albouystown on Thursday leaving three persons injured.
Charged are twenty-nine-year-old Ryan Goodluck, a vendor of 928 Herstelling Housing Scheme and 26-year-old Shane Bourne of Lot 209 Laing Avenue, West Ruimveldt, Georgetown.
Both men appeared at the Georgetown Magistrates’ Courts where the charge was read to them. They were not required to plea to the charge.
The prosecutor objected to bail, due to the extent of injuries on the third victim, who is still in the ICU after being shot to his mouth. It was also highlighted that Bourne have pending matters in court for robbery and Goodluck has had a recent charge for robbery also.
