See full statement from the Guyana Police Force:

Police are investigating an alleged murder committed on 24-year-old Faynel Brewster which occurred about 23:00hrs on Sunday, October 19, 2025, at West Ruimveldt, Georgetown.

Initial investigations revealed that the victim was in the yard of her residence when her brother, a 31-year-old businessman returned home on his black XR motorcycle. He was reportedly confronted by two identifiable males, one armed with a handgun who attempted to rob him of his motorcycle and gold chains.

A scuffle ensued between the suspects and the brother, during which the victim, who was standing in the vicinity was struck by two bullets—one to her upper right arm and another to her left lower chest—after the armed suspect discharged several rounds. She was rushed to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation where she was pronounced dead on arrival.

The suspects escaped on a black XR motorcycle in a northern direction without taking any property.

The scene was processed by investigators from the Crime Scene Unit, where a 9mm spent shell was recovered. CCTV footage is being reviewed as efforts continue to locate the suspects.

Investigations are ongoing.
