Police have one person in custody in connection with the Dec. 31, 2013 shooting on Jeremie Street, Castries which left one man dead and two nursing injuries.
Reports that, at about 7:30 pm on Tuesday, a man fired shots near the CDC apartments.
Sherwin “Ti Carlos” Jn Baptiste of Marisule, Gros Islet; Steven “Shabba” Brey of La Croix, Castries; and Mugabe Jongue of Morne Fortune, Castries sustained gunshot wounds and were transported to Victoria Hospital, police said in a press release.
“Jn Baptiste was pronounced dead on arrival whilst the other two individuals were treated and admitted in a stable condition,” the release further stated.
Residents told St. Lucia News Online that Jn. Baptiste attempted to escape by hiding under a parked car, but that did not stop the gunman’s pursuit.
