An investigation has been launched to determine the circumstances that caused Police Constable Clement Cockfield to shoot his fiancée and fellow officer Shanice Fraser on Tuesday evening, before turning the gun on himself.
The incident occurred just round 10.30 on Tuesday night in the compound of the La Grange Police Station.
Reports are that Fraser, a resident of 28 Middle Road, Pouderoyen, West Bank Demerara, had just completed a tour of duty while Cockfield, of 114 Friendship, East Coast Demerara had just reported for anti-crime patrol duty at which time the officer had allegedly uplifted a service revolver with six (6) rounds.
