ONE MAN DEAD - POLICE APPEAL FOR INFORMATION IN TWO SHOOTINGS

Nassau, Bahamas - The police are appealing to the public for information to assist in their investigations into two separate shooting incidents that has left a man dead and another in hospital on Sunday 22nd January 2017.

In the first incident, shortly after 7:00pm, a man was standing in the rear of his home located at Whites Addition off Kemp Road when a man armed with a handgun approached and shot him before fleeing on foot.

The victim was transported to hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries.

In the second incident, shortly after 10:00pm, a man was walking near a nightclub off Fox Hill Road when he was shot. The man was transported to hospital where he is detained in stable condition.

Investigations are ongoing.


ANYONE WITH INFORMATION ABOUT ANYONE ENGAGING IN CRIMINAL ACTIVITY, NO MATTER HOW SMALL OR INSIGNIFICANT (THE TIP) MAY SEEM, IS URGED TO ANONYMOUSLY CONTACT THE POLICE AT 919 OR CRIME STOPPERS AT 328-TIPS (8477) (NEW PROVIDENCE) OR 1-242-300- 8476 (FAMILY ISLANDS)

WEEKLY CRIME PREVENTION TIP - If a crime occurs – report it!

Everyone should consider it his/her responsibility to report crime. Many criminals target favorite areas and have predictable methods of operation. When you report all the facts about a crime, it helps the police assign officers in the places where crimes are occurring or where they are most likely to occur. If you don’t report crime, this allows the criminal to continue to operate without interference.

In many cases, it is the information provided by victims and witnesses that leads to the arrest of a criminal. So tell the police as much as you can; no fact is too trivial. The police need the eyes and ears of all citizens.
