ONE MAN is dead and another in serious condition in hospital after they were shot multiple times while walking through Montell Heights on Tuesday night.
#This latest murder brings the country’s homicide count to 73 for the year, police said yesterday.
#Assistant Commissioner of Police Stephen Dean said the victims were walking with a group of men on Ethel Street shortly after 9pm when they were approached by men in a silver coloured Honda.
#“The Honda vehicle pulled up and the occupants fired several shots at the group of men and sped off,” ACP Dean said.
“The men were shot multiple times. One of the men was very seriously injured. Both of the victims were taken to hospital where one of the victims died of his injuries. The other man is in serious condition. We are in the early stages of our investigation and our detectives and police officers were on the ground early canvassing the area and talking to witnesses and based on that, I can tell you we are following significant leads and we believe this is a matter that we are going to wrap up very soon.”
#Police have not identified the victim but The Tribune understands he is Patrick Justillien.
