A 30-year-old miner was shot in the leg at around 02:00 hrs yesterday at Kurupung, Mazaruni, allegedly after biting a policeman in the face.
Police identified the shot man as Sean McDonald, 30, of Castello Housing Scheme, Georgetown. According to a police release, two police ranks had travelled to an area in Kurupung in response to a report that a woman had been wounded.
The release stated that when Police Constable 20640 Craigan, who was unarmed, attempted to arrest McDonald in connection with the incident, the suspect attacked the rank and bit him in his face.
“Sean McDonald continued to bite the Constable despite efforts to get him to stop, forcing the other rank, who was armed with his service firearm to resort to the use of force and he was shot to his right thigh,” the release said.
Constable Craigan and Sean McDonald were taken to the medical centre at Kurupung and have been referred to Georgetown. Efforts are being made to get them to the city for further medical attention.
