Two men gunned down in St James – victim found in vehicle with goat

Two men were found shot to death at Corner Road in Content, Adelphi, St James on Thursday morning.

The men, who up to publication time were still unidentified, were found by residents who reported hearing gunshots in the early morning but waited until daylight to make checks outside.

One of the men, the police said, is of dark brown complexion, medium built, about 6 feet, in his early 40s, low cut hairstyle and dressed in a black T-shirt marked and grey cut jeans.

The other is of dark complexion, about 5’ 9, medium build, in his early 20s, sported a cornrow hairstyle and dressed in a black shorts and a black T-shirt.

It was reported that around 4 am, residents heard loud explosions sounding like gunshots in the community. Around 6 am, they stumbled upon the bodies of the two men and called the police.

The police, on their arrival, saw the body of one of the men lying on its back along the roadway. It had what appeared to be gunshot wounds to the head.

The other unidentified male was seen slumped over the steering wheel of a black Toyota Noah in bushes on the side of the road. He also had what appeared to be gunshot wounds all over his body.

Police said the Noah bus had what appeared to be a bullet hole in the front windscreen, damage to the driver door, right fender, right headlamp, front bumper, right front wheel, right back wheel and the right side door.

A goat was found between seats in the back of the Noah.

The scene was processed, and the bodies confirmed dead and removed to the morgue.
