Police Complaints Authority probing crossfire shooting of Agricola senior

Parmadai

The Police Complaints Authority (PCA) is investigating the shooting of an Agricola, East Bank Demerara resident whose family says she was wounded by police during a shootout.

Parmadai (only name), of 124 Caesar Street, Agricola, was shot during a shootout between lawmen and two bandits on July 11.

It is, however, yet to be established if the shot that struck Parmadai was fired by police or the bandits, although both her family and residents of the area say it was the lawmen who were wildly firing during the encounter.
