The farmer’s finger broke during a heart attack

A 31-year-old farmer is now in hospital with a broken finger after being attacked by a man who broke glass at Crabwood Creek, Corentyne, Berbice.
Surendranauth Sookdeo also known as “Robindranauth Sookdeo” and “Tambraine” from Lot 4 Grant 1771 Crabwood Creek, are in hospital in serious but stable condition. His attacker has been identified as a 22-year-old laborer, Romel Williams, also of Crabwood Creek.
Based on Police reports, the incident happened at about 21: 37h on Monday at Backland Crabwood Creek. It was reported that Sookdeo had gone to a businessman’s residence in Backland, where a group of people were sitting.
He was standing there when the suspect suddenly emerged and dealt with Sookdeo several gunshot wounds to his body. The injured man was picked up in an unconscious state and transported to Skeldon Public Hospital, where he received treatment for his broken finger on his left hand and other back injuries.

The man was later transferred to the New Amsterdam Public Hospital, where he is now being admitted.
Meanwhile, while canvassing the crime scene for anything of evidential value, he recovered Sookdeo’s fingerprint, which was picked up and placed in an evidence bag.
CCTV cameras were also seen and photos reviewed. Checks were also made for the suspect but there was nowhere to go. Police said inquiries were underway.
