Investigations are continuing into the shooting to death of 21-year-old Christopher Maloney on Saturday and no-one has yet been held.
Meantime, a post-mortem examination has been set for Wednesday, a relative told Stabroek News yesterday. Maloney was shot dead early Saturday morning after he had rushed to his mother, Margaret Maloney’s aid after gunmen, who were waiting in the yard attempted to rob her.
Police, in a release on Saturday had stated that so far reports revealed that Margaret, who is the owner of Maggie’s Catering located at New Market Street, Georgetown, was about to leave for her business place in her motor vehicle when she was confronted by four masked men, one of whom was armed with a gun.
They held her at gunpoint and took away her jewellery, the police said.
The release added that her son, Christopher, had gone to her assistance and had been shot in his chest by one of the armed men, who all then escaped.
