POLICE are investigating the circumstances surrounding the death of a hitherto unidentified man of mixed ancestry, whose body was found, at about 22:00 hours on Saturday on the Eccles Access Road, East Bank Demerara, with a suspected bullet wound.

The victim, apparently aged in the thirties, was brown-complexioned and was clad in a white jersey, blue denim coat, blue hard pants and black boots.

The body is at the Lyken Funeral Parlour, but investigations are in progress.
