POLICE in ‘C’ Division are questioning two persons in relation to the Enmore wash bay drive-by shooting which left three persons nursing gunshot injuries on Friday night last.Sleuths said the two persons are being detained for ‘questioning purposes’, and are not considered suspects in that incident. The suspects are yet to be arrested, police said.

Taxi driver Ron Robinson has since been discharged from the GPHC, while Tishana Persaud is yet to undergo surgery to remove bullets still lodged in her body. Toby Etwaroo is also a patient at the GPHC. He was shot in the abdomen.

Police reportedly are still hunting for the suspect(s) who opened fire on the injured from a heavily tinted motor car on Friday night at the “Bless Up” wash bay and chill spot bar at School Street, Hope West, Enmore.

Those injured are 32-year-old taxi driver Ron Robinson, called “The General”, of Bachelor’s Adventure, ECD; Tishana Persaud, 29, of Foulis, Enmore; and 24-year-old wash bay employee Toby Etwaroo, called Kevin, of Lot 226 Hope West, Enmore, ECD.

Eyewitnesses told the Guyana Chronicle that at about 19:30hrs on the day in question, the taxi driver arrived with two women at the wash bay. They were liming when a heavily tinted silver grey car pulled up and an occupant of the said vehicle opened fire indiscriminately at the group.

Etwaroo, who was about to bring chairs for others to sit, was shot in the abdomen. He, however, ran from the scene and collapsed in front of a neighbour’s house.

The bullet exited his body and was recovered at the spot where he collapsed and handed over to the police at Enmore Police Station on Saturday morning.
