Wanted bulletin issued for Sophia man who shot girlfriend

A twenty-eight-year old West Coast Berbice (WCB) woman is currently fighting for her life after being shot in the face Wednesday morning  by a man who is said to be her boyfriend.

Devlin Garraway, a mother of three, was shot in her home at Number 30 Village, WCB  around 0930 hrs by her assailant.

A relative said:”Earlier in the week she told him that their relationship was over. He visited her this morning and neighbors said they heard voices raised in anger and then the sound of a gunshot.”

Moments later the male suspect was seen fleeing from the scene in a motor car.

Garraway was rushed to the Fort Wellington Hospital where she received emergency  medical treatment and then later transferred to the New Amsterdam Hospital.

Her condition was reported to be stable since the bullet intended for her head, hit her in her face instead.

The police have since issued a wanted bulletin for Julian Arthur, aged 30, whose last known address is listed as Sophia, Greater Georgetown.

Anyone with information that may lead to the arrest of Julian Arthur is asked to contact the police on telephone numbers 333-2151, 333-5564, 333-3876, 226-6978, 225-8196, 226-2870, 226-7065, 227-1149, 226-7065, 911 or the nearest police station.

All information will be treated with the strictest confidence.
