The staff of the Shack Inn and Bar located on Norton Street between George and Camp Street,Denzel Valentine Michigan State Jersey, Georgetown,Denard Robinson Michigan Jersey, were yesterday in a state of shock when they got embroiled in a confrontation with a customer who allegedly wanted to kill his girlfriend then poison himself, but was only successful with the latter.The body of Grant being removed by undertakers.Dead is 38-year-old Wilbert E. Grant,Skal Labissiere Kentucky Jersey, a sign artist from Linden who poisoned himself after allegedly trying to kill his younger girlfriend, Sherry John (also from Linden). She was currently staying in town with family members.Kaieteur News understands that around 09:00 am yesterday,Marquette Golden Eagles Jerseys, Grant entered the lobby of the Shack Hotel and made a phone call to his girlfriend enquiring if she would be coming. Upon confirming that she was coming to the hotel he booked a room for 24 hours and paid for it. The man then left the premises and came back with his girlfriend and was escorted to Room 12 on the third floor of the building where persons paying for a whole day would be housed.Simone Johnson, the room attendant, relating what transpired said that about 15 minutes after she left the couple in their room,Kansas State Wildcats Jerseys, she heard rumbling sounds coming from upstairs and when she went to enquire what was happening,Peyton Siva Louisville Jersey, she saw the woman screaming and sprinting down the stairs.The hysterical woman then said to the attendant that the “man was choking her and wanted to kill her.” She luckily was able to escape by punching the man in the groin. “She cuff the man in he balls and when he released his grip on her she quickly fled from the room,Michael Ford LSU Jersey,” Johnson related.The woman who was gasping for breath while holding her throat said the man told her he was coming after her. The attendant and the woman now fearful of what might transpire went and secured themselves along with the proprietor and other staff members in a locked room. They were not certain what the man (Grant) might do to them,De Aaron Fox Kentucky Jersey, or even if he was armed and so they called the cops.The proprietor of the establishment said that the police were called multiple times and after an hour and a half they came and went upstairs to confront the man only to find the door locked. Johnson, the room attendant,Cheap NFL Jerseys, who went up with the police said that after the door was locked the police then kicked the door open and were confronted with putrid smell of rat poison and the body of Grant who was frothing at the mouth.It was then that it was discovered that the man had committed suicide by ingesting poison.The situation apparently occurred because the man was rejected by his girlfriend who was no longer interested in continuing their relationship. He had arranged the hotel meeting to try and reconcile his relationship with her but in what seems to be a premeditated act the man was prepared to kill her and consume poison in the event that they did not resolve their relationship. He however was unsuccessful in trying to kill her but continued with his apparent plan to kill himself. |
