Four suspects arrested over murder of America St. money changer

Four men have been arrested and are being questioned for the murder of money changer, Shawn Nurse, who was shot dead on Sunday in America Street, here in Georgetown.

In a statement this afternoon, the Guyana Police Force said detectives probing the murder arrested the four suspects for questioning. Additionally,  a red Honda CG Motorcycle suspected to have been used in the commission of the crime has also been impounded.

Investigators have been reviewing CCTV video recordings from the area and that was how they were able to identify the motorcycle and at least one of the suspects, according to police sources.

According to the Police, one of the suspects now claims that he had loaned the bike to one of the other men, but that has since been denied.

Two of the suspects currently being grilled were previously charged with robbing the same money-changer, Shawn Nurse. However they were later freed after Nurse reportedly decided not to offer any evidence against them and the matter was settled for $500,000.

The investigation continues.
