It is impossible for him to be wounded like that by persons in a passing vehicle. He either sustained his injury by shooting himself, or someone who was standing very close to him, shot him,” the police source said.Meanwhile, when this newspaper contacted the injured cop yesterday, he said that the story he told investigators is what really transpired on that day.“I did not make up any story.

I can’t believe this is happening,Karl Mecklenburg Broncos Jersey,” the shot cop said.He added that he has no enemies and has no idea who would what to open fire on him.“I will find out who shot me because words get around. The police are not doing anything. They are not trying to find out who shot me, they are busy making allegations against me,” Mohamed said.He had earlier told this newspaper that when he was shot,Mousa Dembele Jersey UK, he was not immediately conscious of what had transpired.“It was New Year’s Day and squibs were going off and so it sounded like squibs …,” the cop said.He added that, “I felt my leg grow numb and I kind of collapsed to the ground… I looked up and saw a white motorcar with heavily tinted windows speeding off in the direction of Parika…but I didn’t see the licence plate.”Salim said that after realizing that he was shot, a friend, who was nearby,Bruno Caboclo Raptors Jersey, came to his rescue. He summoned a taxi which transported the policeman to the hospital.“My friend helped me and I got my mother and came to the hospital immediately,” he had said to this newspaper.Investigations are ongoing. |
