Police are investigating an alleged murder of a security guard of Atlas Security Service, who as stationed at the Guyana National Museum this past weekend.
Details are that Shawn Lovell, 57, was stabbed multiple times after an argument with a fellow guard.
The police said that Junior Anthony Lindore, 38, also a security guard with Atlas Security Service, had taken over the evening shift from Lovell at 17:40hrs.
Lovell left the museum after handing over duty but returned about an hour later to the guard hut, accusing Lindore of stealing his cellphone.
This accusation quickly escalated into a heated verbal exchange, during which Lindore produced two knives from his haversack.
A struggle broke out between the two men, during which Lindore stabbed Lovell twice in the back, once in the right shoulder, and inflicted four stab wounds on Lovell’s right hand and was later pronounced deceased.
Authorities recovered three knives and a cutlass from the guard hut as part of the crime scene investigation.
