Georgetown : An interdicted Cadet Officer of the Guyana Police Force who in May of this year had a criminal charge discharged against him after he compensated his victim, has been detained in connection with several Offences. The Officer’s reputed wife alleged that following a misunderstanding among them earlier yesterday, he drew a loaded handgun and threatened to shoot her and in the ensuing process, she managed to disarm him; immediately thereafter she handed over the firearm to a neighbor who promptly went to the nearby Ruimveldt Police Station, reported the matter and handed over a .32 pistol with thirteen (13) live rounds, one of which was found in its breech.
The Officer was held at the Georgetown Public Hospital where he sought medical attention for an injured right hand, which is now in a cast he told investigators that during the fracas, he struck the hand to a concrete wall and further, has reportedly admitted ownership of the illegal firearm with ammunition. The incident occurred at Second Street, Alexander Village and the Officer in question, is presently not on actual duty as the decision of his re-instatement rests solely with the Police Service Commission.
