A 25-year-old man was admitted to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation at around 22.30 hrs last night after being shot in the stomach and leg.
Relatives identified the victim as Kevin Rose of East Ruimveldt Housing Scheme. However, Kaieteur News understands that the wounded man identified himself to hospital staffers as Jermaine Otto.
An individual known as Jermaine Otto was incarcerated in 2009 for escaping from lawful custody while on a charge of receiving stolen property.
According to one report, Otto was in the vicinity of the East Ruimveldt area known as ‘Warlock’, when a man with a firearm shot him.
He was rushed to the GPHC and was being prepared for surgery at press time.
