Police investigate the fatal stabbing of 37-year-old Cuban national Luis Angel Rodriguez Guillen at about 23:00h on Saturday, September 26, 2026, at a shipyard in Land of Canaan, East Bank Demerara.
Both outlets report that Guillen is killed during an altercation involving another man. The suspect is identified as a 32-year-old Cuban national and is in custody as investigations continue. The police are still carrying out preliminary inquiries into the circumstances leading up to the stabbing and how the confrontation occurred.
While the Guyana Chronicle and INews Guyana both focus on the incident location, time, victim age and nationality, and the arrest of a 32-year-old Cuban suspect, they differ slightly in framing: INews Guyana describes it as a “row,” whereas the Guyana Chronicle refers more generally to an alleged murder under investigation. Neither source provides further details on motive or the status of any charges.
