“I was going up the road and my nephew called me and said, Uncle, Devlin dead, somebody shoot her. I call my big daughter and we rush down to the hospital but didn’t get to see her” her father related.

According to information reaching this publication, the woman is said to be nursing a gunshot wound to the head and is said to be in a critical condition. The incident according to relatives took place at Number 30 Village, West Coast Berbice.
