After a very slow week in crime we now see its resurgence. Let's see if the dragnets can continue to be effective to now hungry afc/apnu criminals who desperately need cash to sport this holiday season.

 

Passenger shoots bus driver in back

A minibus driver is now nursing a gunshot wound to the back after he was shot by a passenger on Tuesday evening in what appeared to be an attempted robbery. The injured driver was identified as 38-year-old Jermaine Brown of Sparendaam, East Coast Demerara.

According to information received, the minibus was stopped by a man along the Railway Embankment at Liliendaal, Greater Georgetown. As the passenger entered the vehicle, he reportedly whipped out a firearm while another man walked towards the driver.

Upon seeing this, Brown accelerated in an attempt to drive away but the gunman discharged a round, hitting him to the back.

At the time of the shooting incident, several passengers were in the minibus. The driver was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital where he was admitted a patient.
