Police still to make an arrest

North Ruimveldt execution

As investigations continue into the execution-style killing of Mark Anthony Wilson, also called “QQ”, the Police are still to make an arrest, according to acting A Division (Georgetown-East Bank Demerara) Commander, Marlon Chapman.
Chapman noted that they are working with several leads and are yet to confirm whether the men left the scene in a motorcar or on foot. He added that based on initial information gathered by the Police, the two gunmen might have escaped on foot. Nevertheless, he noted the Police will continue to question residents in the area.
The body of 22-year-old Wilson of Lot 1238 Canje Pheasant Lane, South Ruimveldt, Georgetown, was riddled with bullets by two of the three suspects at about 22:00h.
This newspaper understands the young man was standing in the vicinity of the “Short Cut” when two men exited a car and opened fire on Wilson.
In an attempt to escape, Wilson ran through a yard but the gunmen gave chase and continued to discharge their firearms, with several other rounds hitting him about the body. He eventually collapsed after running a short distance. The gunmen reportedly caught up with the injured man and continued to pump bullets into his body.
After the gunmen made good their escape in a motorcar, persons in the neighbourhood ran to assist the injured man. He was picked up and rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital but succumbed on the way to the medical facility.
