The dead bandit on the kitchen floor of the house at Annandale, East Coast Demerara.A bandit was early Friday morning shot dead and two guns recovered when he and others invaded the home of a fisherman and member of a Community Policing Group (CPG) at Annandale North, East Coast Demerara.

Gruesome images seen by Demerara Waves show the bandit lying on the kitchen floor with a gaping wound to his neck.

Deputy Police Commissioner Seelall Persaud said the identity of the man was not immediately available.

He confirmed that the incident occurred about 2 AM at the home of Merano Jeffrey also known as Warrie.

Two other bandits escaped when Jeffrey, a member of the CPG, opened fire with the CPG’s shotgun that he had in his possession at the time.

Investigators were told that Jeffrey’s father, who is a fisherman and owner of several boats, heard a noise and when he looked outside he saw two men in the yard.

His son and the now dead bandit exchanged gunfire and missed each other. Jeffrey took cover in a nearby room and ambushed the gunman, shooting him in his face and neck.

A .22 handgun was found in possession of the dead bandit and one of the escapees dropped a bag and a .38 handgun near the fence.

Nothing was stolen and none of the occupants was injured.

Thanks to the PPP we have armed community groups to defend themselves from armed criminals. KN and AFC/PNC supporters will holler and ball if we demand that the picture of the dead criminal be posted.

Kudos to the PPP and the community group for defending their private property. Every dead criminal means a safer Guyana.
