FORTY – TWO – year old Sarojni Warnauth was up to press time Wednesday evening in a critical condition at a city hospital, after she was shot in the jaw by her husband, who later pulled the trigger on himself. Dead is 73-year-old Theodore Adams, called “Toti,” who reportedly owned a mining business. His brother, Claude Adams told the Guyana Chronicle that the couple had an argument at their Lot

24 North Road, Georgetown home, when Adams reportedly picked up a gun and shot the woman.
According to Claude, neighbours reported that after she was shot, Warnauth escaped through a window and alerted neighbours, who then contacted relatives.

Warnauth was shot at approximately 18:30h; Adams reportedly killed himself some two hours later before relatives arrived at the scene.
It is unclear what the two argued about and a police investigation is underway. The couple had two children together.
Sources have indicated that “Toti,” who operated an interior mining operation, recently showed signs of a mental illness.
