The body of a man discovered last Wednesday night lying naked along the Vreed-en-Hoop Public Road with lacerations to his head and body has been identified.
The deceased was identified by a relative on Saturday morning as forty-seven-year-old security guard, Reginald Moore of New Road, Vreed-en-Hoop.
According to a prior police report, Moore was found last Wednesday night about 11:20pm. His body was picked up by police and taken to the West Demerara Regional Hospital where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
A relative who asked to remain anonymous shared that she last saw the man when he visited a day or two prior to his death. She said that he seemed okay except that he complained about a cold he had. She added too that he suffered from hypertension.
The relative said she learnt of his demise last Friday afternoon. Police she said informed her that Moore’s death could be a possible hit and run and that a post mortem would confirm his cause of death.
The woman said that they are still trying to understand why the deceased was found naked.
Moore is survived by two children one of whom currently resides in the US.
A post mortem is expected to be done on his body today.
