A spate of shootings last night in the city left two men dead and two policemen and a vendor injured as the torrent of crime continues unabated.

The two men, both employees of the Chapman and Trotman law firm, were shot dead outside a video store on Joseph Pollydore Street, Lodge while the policemen were injured in shootings in other parts of the city.

Dead are Orin Shultz, 29, of 33 Joseph Pollydore Street, Lodge and Gladwin Fecker, 38, of Albouystown and Linden. Shultz was employed as a lawyer’s clerk while Fecker was said to be a security official at the same law firm. Stabroek News understands that Fecker had once been employed as a body-guard for treason accused Mark Benschop during the 2001 election campaign.
