Ulric Michael, one of the Linden protestors who was shot and wounded by the police last Wednesday was this morning air-dashed to the city on a GDF helicopter after his condition took a turn for the worse.
Stabroek News was told that Michael, 33 years old, of 23 Canvas City is now unconscious. Following the incident, he had been admitted a patient of the Intensive Care Unit of the Linden Hospital Complex with gunshot wounds to the chest.
Two GDF helicopters landed at the Mackenzie Sports Club Ground and one later left for the city with Michael.
His mother and other relatives are now leaving the mining town via road for the Georgetown Hospital and were too distraught to speak when contacted by this newspaper.
