Doctors at the Georgetown Public Hospital were last night fighting to save the life of a young man who had been shot in the face by an unknown gunman.
According to reports, Marlon Britton of Public Road, Plaisance was at his girlfriend’s house when the incident occurred around 9.30 pm.
The distraught girlfriend related at the hospital last night that she had gone inside the house and left Britton sitting on the steps outside. He was alone.
Soon after, another young woman who was in the house happened to look outside and saw a man pointing a gun at Britton’s head.
She shouted out, alerting the girlfriend and others but by the time they ran outside a gunshot was heard and the man was making good his escape.
They realized that Britton had been shot in the face and rushed him to the hospital. His condition was listed as critical last night.
No one saw the shooter’s face or could say if he acted alone. No one could say if Britton had problems with anyone.




Another “unknown” gunman on the loose in Guyana. This is the kind of vigilanteism that the PPP has fostered due to their lack of law and order.
You are becomming redundant now with this PPP thing.
i agree with you biswattie, just like the vigilante that shot the chain snatcher the other day, it will escalate let’s just watch and see.
Biswattie, you need to put a sock in it and stop your daily rambling. With all the emission you are spewing, no wonder our
planet is in danger of “Global Warming”. Elections in Guyana,
is not far away, you need to mass your troops and Vote the PPP
out of office and lets see if the AFC, PNC etc etc can stop
what is happening in Guyana. Talk is cheap.
how can you prove that this was vigilanteism?Make some sense when you are attacking the PPP.
They will allways attack you for speaking the truth, because it hurts. Ignore the BR, continue to do what you are doing.
very strange
Sounds like a setup.
this “gunman” is unknown to u ,, not to the victim ,, u need to be reined in lest we all endup looking like u ….. stupidy !….
YES JUSTICE I TOTALLY AGREED WITH YOU THIS IS VERY STRANGE.HOW IS IT THAT THE OTHER WOMAN SAW THE MAN POINTING THE GUN AND SHE COULD NOT RECOGNISE HIS FACE? WERE THE MAN WEARING A MASKED? SOMETHING DOES NOT SEEM RIGHT HERE. I HOPE THE GUY PULL THROUGH AND THE PERPETRATOR BE FOUND. HE ALSO NEEDS TO BE VERY CAREFUL CAUSE THIS STORY IN STRAIGHT.
The shooters are always unknown in these cases.
This man is now dead according to KN
R.I.P Marlon u will be missed and to Father he died after 12 this morning
BR sure has something against the PPP, thank God its not the US, causing her to be so bitter
RIP. Biswattie is correct. This is a nightmare situation in Guyana growing worse. We cannot continue to support these unknown gunmen no matter how justified we think their action might be.
