Sister of slain electrician: I dreamt it days before

By Jensen LaVende

THE SISTER of a Chaguanas man who was killed on Friday said she had an eerie dream her brother had been killed five days before his death.

This according to Michelle Jobe-Dass, the sister of murdered electrician Findley Richard Jobe who was shot dead on Friday night near his Circular Drive, Enterprise, Chaguanas, home.

Jobe-Dass said her brother was shot dead by people who may have been jealous of him since he had accomplished much in his 39 years.

Around 9.30 p.m. on Friday, Jobe was seated in a borrowed Nissan Tiida car near his home when another car stopped alongside and one of the occupants leaned out and opened fire. Jobe was hit in his left thigh.

He was taken to the Chaguanas Health Centre where he was pronounced dead on arrival.

Jobe-Dass spoke to reporters yesterday at the Forensic Science Centre, St James, where she had gone to witness his autopsy.

She described her brother as a family man who carried on the tradition of his deceased grandmother, Augustina Thorne, to cook and share his meal with the residents of Circular Drive.

Jobe, who was the father of two, had borrowed a car from a childhood friend and had just returned home from dropping off his youngest child at her mother's home when he was killed.

A single bullet to the left thigh caused his death with the autopsy report revealing that he died due to haemorrhaging.
