Kaieteur News – Police in Region One are now investigating the death of Daniel Wilson of Lower Black Water, Barima River North West District, who was allegedly stabbed to death by his foster father on Easter Sunday night.

Wanted, Nigel Abraham

According to reports, the tragic incident which claimed the life of the 17-year-old boy and left his cousin hospitalised occurred on Sunday around 22:00hrs.
Investigation so far revealed that Wilson, his foster father and one of his cousins, Ron Moonsammy were imbibing alcohol when an argument ensued amongst them. Details about the argument which remains unclear led the suspect to stab the now deceased with a knife.
Reports are that Moonsammy intervened and tried to save his cousin but the suspect reportedly turned on him with the knife and stabbed him to the chest. Wilson was rushed to the Mabaruma Public Hospital where he was pronounced dead while an injured Moonsammy was rushed to the same hospital in a critical condition but later had to be transported to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GHPC) for further treatment.
