Then we get the call that he was dead.”Peters maintained that his brother was not a criminal but in fact a hard worker,Jamie Garcia Jersey, who cleaned fish at the Meadow Bank wharf to support his three children.“I don’t think my brother ever had a gun because I never see a gun yet in my life and I hear people saying that my brother surrendered and the police still kill he. I don’t know what is going on here because (President David) Granger said not to shoot anyone,Arizona Diamondbacks Kevin Jepsen Jersey,” Peters said.He added that the death of his brother is a tragedy and his family is devastated, especially his eldest brother who is currently serving a jail sentence in prison.While Peters said that he could not recall why his brother was charged, this newspaper was able to confirm that 30-year-old Quincy Letlow was remanded to prison on several occasions for robbery under arms.Jamal Letlow,Brett Cecil Jersey, on the other hand, was shot in 2014 when he grabbed a gold chain from a 14-year-old passenger while disembarking a mini bus.An alarm was raised and a city constabulary,Michael Bourn Jersey, who was in the area at the time, responded and shot Letlow to the buttocks.In 2015, the father of three was charged for stealing a motorcycle from Shawn Edu and in 2012, Letlow was among three persons who robbed Ramsarran of $8,Drew Storen Jersey,000.While Kaieteur News was unable to get information on Shaquille Fraser, there are reports that the 22-year-old man was involved in at least two robberies.Kaieteur News understands that the men were killed minutes after carrying out a robbery at the Seaforth Street residence.A man, who was at the function said that the bandits both armed with guns, came at the gate and requested to speak with “Kevin.”The man, who declined to divulge his name, said that he told the men that no “Kevin” was there. It was then the bandits whipped out their firearms and demanded that the occupants remain still.One of the bandits searched almost everyone present at the event and took away cash, jewellery and other valuables. The other gunman ransacked the home and made off with several cellular phones and other items.An alarm was raised just as the bandits escaped and ranks on the patrol managed to track down the two armed men who sought refuge in the churchyard behind Campbellville Secondary School.The armed men allegedly shot at the police, but were riddled during the ensuing shoot-out.One .38 revolver and one spent shell were recovered along with five live matching rounds. |
