Joel Paton, who survived an early morning attack on Wednesday, when a mining camp at Imataka, Venezuela, was raided by gunmen, said he watched as his fellow miners were shot dead.
Paton, 22, of Supenaam Creek Head Mission, Essequibo River, was one of the 11 miners, who were asleep during the early morning assault on the mining camp. He is grateful to be alive after the horrendous ordeal, which took three lives.
