who was reportedly stabbed to death by a Venezuelan national. Harry, of Lot 24 Best Village (Foreshore), West Coast Demerara, was attacked around 3:00 hours along the Vreed-en-Hoop Public Road.

Police said that Harry’s friend, 30-year-old Naipaul Sukhdeo, reported that the two were heading home from a Car and Bike Show at the Leonora National Stadium around 2:30 hours. Sukhdeo said they stopped at a hot dog stall at Vreed-en-Hoop opposite the Bright Star Chinese Restaurant.

While purchasing hot dogs, Harry got into an argument with a Venezuelan man, and this escalated into a scuffle. The suspect allegedly armed himself with a knife and Harry reportedly used his belt in an attempt to defend himself, before fleeing to the northern side of the roadway with blood gushing from his neck but he collapsed shortly after. Police reported that the suspect boarded a minibus parked nearby and escaped. Meanwhile, Sukhdeo told police he observed a stab wound to Harry’s neck before rushing him to the West Demerara Regional Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Police said the body bore one stab wound to the left side of the neck. The body is currently at the Ezekiel Funeral Home awaiting a Post Mortem Examination (PME).  (Kaieteur News)
