Akeem Prince, 34, of Victoria Village, East Coast Demerara (ECD), was allegedly murdered by his brother, Kareem Prince, 28, early Sunday morning, police said.
The brothers, who were living together, reportedly had an argument between 4:00h and 6:30h, at their home.
While details regarding the incident are still unclear, it was reported that during the altercation, Kareem is alleged to have struck Akeem in the head with a machete, resulting in his death.
Following the incident, Kareem was arrested and is currently in police custody.
Authorities are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.
This follows a similar incident earlier in the year in West Coast Berbice (WCB), when, on New Year’s Day, Kiran Bacchus, 41, was fatally injured during a physical confrontation with his younger brother at their home in Section ‘A’ Cotton Tree.
