–boyfriend wanted for alleged murder

A 29-year-old nurse was arrested in ‘B’ Field, Sophia, Georgetown after police found an illegal Beretta handgun and ammunition in her yard.
Acting on information received, a group of policemen visited the location in search of Romerio Hudson, 34, who is wanted in connection with an alleged murder.

Contact was made with the nurse who admitted to being the man’s girlfriend.

Police said a search was later conducted in her home but nothing of evidential value was found. However, a search of the yard unearthed a black haversack under a tree. When opened, a Beretta handgun with one magazine and two live 9MM rounds were found.

The woman was asked if she is the holder of a firearm licence and she said no. She was then told of the offence committed and cautioned but she remained silent.

She was then arrested and escorted to the Turkeyen Police Station where the firearm and ammunition were marked, sealed and lodged in her presence.

An investigation is in progress.
