Bartica atrocity…Vessel believed used by gunmen recovered

Kaieteur News Guyana: "Ranks from the Joint Services have detained a Bartica boat operator as they continue investigations into Sunday’s carnage at Bartica, which left 12 dead and residents heavily traumatized.
Official sources, confirming the man’s detention last night, said that it is believed that the resident was centrally involved in arranging transportation for the gunmen, who were reportedly heading to the interior area following their hour-long rampage.
‘E’ and ‘F’ Division Commander Gavin Primo stated yesterday that investigators had detained a man who had previous brushes with the law, and who is suspected to have links with the gunmen behind the mass killings.
Primo also confirmed that the Joint Services had recovered a boat, equipped with a 75-horsepower engine, which was found adrift near St. Mary’s, Essequibo.
He said that the vessel contained some food supplies, weather gear and camouflage clothing. A live round was also found in the vessel."
