Kaieteur News – A 32-year-old father of three, Kevin James, is in a critical condition after being involved in a hit-and-run incident at La Penitence Market, located on Saffon Street in Charlestown, Georgetown Monday night.

The incident has been reported to the police, and an investigation is currently underway. (Wayne Lyttle)
