Karasabai man held with makeshift gun

Vibert Thomas

Two Police ranks were on mobile patrol in the vicinity of Cracrana, Karasabai Village, South Pakaraimas on Sunday where they observed Vibert Thomas, a 29-year-old mason who was at the time riding a bicycle with a long metal object on his right shoulder.

The ranks, who were on patrol in a Police ATV, advanced towards Thomas, who dropped the metal object next to a mango tree and stood a short distance away from where he dropped the object. The ranks then picked up the object and checked it in the presence of  Thomas. It was observed that it was a makeshift single-barrel shotgun.
