A father of one lost his life on Friday morning after he was beaten and his throat slashed by another man during a heated argument.
Dead is 32-year-old Mark Delon Frank of Yarrow Dam, Ruimveldt, Georgetown. The stabbing occurred around 07:00h at Riverview, Ruimveldt, Georgetown.
According to a family member of Frank, he had left his home early in the morning to go to a small bar at Riverview, Ruimveldt, where he usually goes to imbibe alcohol. While there, he got into an argument with a young man, and as he was about the ride off from the scene on his bicycle, the suspect allegedly ran behind him, hit him on his head, and slashed his throat.
This caused Frank to fall to the ground, where he bled out and subsequently died at the scene. The suspect then made good his escape but was arrested hours later by Police.
Dead: Mark Delon Frank
“We were told that they found him [the suspect] at his place of residence hiding under the house and was washing off the knife. Mark didn’t even get to ride off when he kill him. His hands were on the handle when they found the body.”
“Mark was a good person. He was that one person who is always ready to defend his family. He was a happy soul, very jovial, and always helpful towards his family and friends. This boy [the suspect] is a troublemaker.”
“This is not the first time the suspect was involved in a murder. I would like to get justice because he didn’t deserve to die like that even if they were in an argument, he hit him in the head, how you gonna still go and cut he throat,” the relative said. (G9)
