Kwabena Wright

An overseas-based Guyanese is now a patient of the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) after being shot during a robbery.

Stabroek News understands that the incident occurred late yesterday afternoon just after the man, who has since been identified as Kwabena Wright, left Republic Bank’s Water Street location.

Reports are that the man, who is said to a resident of the Turks and Caicos Islands had just finished a transaction at the bank when he stepped outside and entered a taxi.
