Police have arrested one of two men wanted in connection with the murder of 30-year-old taxi driver Ron Clarke, whose bullet-riddled body was discovered in a drain at Victory Valley, Linden, Region Ten (Upper Demerara-Berbice) on last Thursday.
Arrested is 20-year-old Seon Johnson of Well Road, South Amelia’s Ward, Linden. Police said on Monday that efforts are still underway to locate the second suspect, Travis Brewster, also 20, of Blueberry Hill, Linden, who remains at large.
Clarke, who resided at William Street, Kitty, Georgetown and Wisroc Housing Scheme, was found dead by a 19-year-old construction worker, who alerted Police. Clarke’s body was transported to the Linden Hospital Complex by a passing vehicle, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
A post-mortem revealed Clarke sustained 14 gunshot wounds, five to the right arm, two to the groin, one to the hip, and six to the right thigh. A warhead was also found in his underwear. At the crime scene, investigators recovered ten 9mm spent shells.
