Investigations revealed that at approximately 05:00 h on Sunday, Lall was brought to the Port Kaituma Police Station by Ewart Mingo, a 26-year-old porter. Lall sustained a stab wound to the left side of his chest.
A Police rank promptly escorted Lall to the Port Kaituma Hospital for medical attention. However, while receiving treatment, the victim succumbed. The body was subsequently placed in the Port Kaituma Hospital Mortuary, awaiting a post-mortem examination.
Acting on information received, Police proceeded to Train Line, Port Kaituma, at around 16:30hrs on Sunday afternoon, where they arrested the suspect, Mark Junior George, also known as ‘Killa’, a 24-year-old gold miner of Albouystown, who had previously served a three-year sentence for a narcotics offence.
