A BUSHY PARK, Mahaicony farmer was hacked to death Saturday night during a drinking spree – allegedly by a 20-year-old man.
Dead is David Micah. The suspect, who has since been arrested, has been identified as 20-year-old Jordan Walters.

According to police sources, Walters, Micah and several other persons were imbibing at Goat Bar in Cottage, Mahaicony, when the song ‘Pick Up Something’ came on.
Walters reportedly picked up the bicycle of one of the patrons, who was at the bar, and that angered the man who reportedly dealt him several slaps to the face. The 20-year-old then reportedly left the area and went home where he armed himself with a cutlass before returning to the shop.

Up to press time, there were conflicting reports as to how the farmer became involved since it was not his bicycle that Walters had picked up.
However, a resident told Guyana Chronicle that Walters was approaching the female shop owner with the cutlass when Micah, who was armed with a knife, intervened. It was then, according to the resident, that Walters chopped Micah about his body including his hands, neck and head.

The farmer reportedly fell to the ground and was picked up and rushed to the hospital in the area where he was pronounced dead.

Police sources related that the suspect is presently in custody assisting with the murder investigation.
