‘An unsung hero’ because of his nature, Jermaine Allister Burrowes when confronted with a gun, not only lost his kidney, but has paid the ultimate price days after he saved passengers from being robbed.

Burrowes, who was shot last Tuesday night by one of two armed bandits during an attempted robbery at Liliendaal, East Coast Demerara (ECD) succumbed to his injuries on Saturday night in the Intensive Care Unit of the GPHC. Barrow, 38, was shot during an attempted robbery on persons in the vehicle that he was driving along the Liliendaal Railway Embankment. Burrowes was shot around 22:00 hrs, shortly after he had picked up passengers at the Giftland Mall at Liliendaal. He managed to drive his vehicle for a short distance before veering into a trench at Blygezeight Gardens, ECD..(Kaieteurnews.com/photo:Kaieteurnews.com)…[+]
