He has bullets in his spine, face, neck, skull, arms, was left for dead, got up, ran for about 5 km to get help, saw people, tried to call for help but no sound came out because he had been shot in the neck. The people wanted money to help him, he had none. He was left in a boat for 4 hours. Eventually after coughing up blood, Davey was helped.

“He was shot at in his kayak. He fell out. Could not move his arm. They shot at him again, he swam to get away. He has bullets in his spine, face, neck skull arms. This boy then stayed in the water thinking it’s over, but an instinct made him run, he ran for about 5 km to get help; he had to drag his leg and his arms had lost all feeling.”

“He found people on the other side of the river, he tried to call for help, but no sound came out cos he had been shot in the neck. They eventually saw him and wanted money to help him, he got some help, but further along he was left in a boat for 4 hours cos he had no money, eventually after coughing up blood, which would not stop, they got scared and helped him, they wrapped him in plastic and blankets and not sure what happened from there, all I know Davey said to me.”
