Dominica is reeling from a violent incident that claimed the life of one individual and left two others injured. The shootout occurred moments ago near the Bath Estate Bridge. Police are still at the scene.
According to police sources who confirmed the incident to Antigua.news, the details surrounding the shootout are still emerging, and investigations are underway. The condition of the injured individuals has not been disclosed, but they have been taken to the country’s main hospital for treatment.
This latest act of gun violence adds to a troubling trend, as the island has witnessed an increase in gun-related incidents over the past few years.
In broad day light like this we are seeing these criminal activties. Usually people wait until night to commit these kinds of acts but this bold face-no face shootout says alot of the society we live in. It means these shooters don’t care who sees them. They want their blood and wants it now
All over is some bold face shooting. But they label Antigua as the worse Caribbean country and say how they should stay in their country. Any Dominican care to explain this?
I can’t speak for Antigua but in Dominica its rarely a random shooting where someone just targets a stranger. It is usually lovers quarrel, drug deal gone bad or some type of retaliatory act.
Dominica is still a very safe place to live and work.
Hope that answers your question.
I hope that the other two people survive. To say the least.
Well well. Across the ocean is someone who did someone wrong and has to pay the price! let’s hope the other to survive to tell the tail!
rules of how this new generation tackles conflicts
SMH. It is like the entire islands are possessed by guns and blood. I dont see it getting worse. But it will.
Because criminals who have committed murder continue to walk the streets, they feel untouchable. They feel as if no one would apprehend them so why even hide to pull the trigger
Hence my reason for having no interest in going to Dominica. The place has gotten like the wild wild west
Police are investigating, but will the trail go cold like so many others? The families deserve more than a headline. They deserve answers.
