Man shot trying to disarm cop
LASHAY Saul went on Monday to the Golden Grove Police Station on the East Bank of Demerara to make a report of domestic abuse against her reputed husband, claiming he was a habitual abuser.
A rank was sent to the couple’s home to arrest the suspect. In resisting arrest, the suspect allegedly held on to the armed constable and grabbed his firearm. A round was discharged and it struck the suspect’s left elbow. He was rushed to the Diamond Diagnostic Centre, where he was treated and discharged.
He is presently in police custody, and the police are working to complete their case file on the matter, after which charges would be instituted.
