An eyewitness has substantiated the account that Shaquille Grant, 17, was gunned down by police in Agricola, according to AFC Chairman Nigel Hughes, who said the party would share the evidence with the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in order for criminal charges to be laid.

Both the AFC and the PNCR have visited Agricola in wake of Tuesday’s incident, which saw Grant, of Lot 72 ‘BB’ Eccles, East Bank Demerara fatally shot some time after 11 am at Third Street, Agricola,
