This is very sad. Condolence to his family
Smh still cant believe it. Gone too soon brother
This is heartbreaking.I was kinda praying he would make it… No family should have to wake up to news like this. We are losing too many men to gun violence.
Gunmen walking around with no regard for life whatsoever. It is sickening and terrifying.
He died longtime. They had the man on machine saying he alive.Life support is not being alive
Another young man gone to senseless violence. Antigua is too small for this level of crime. When will it stop?
This shooting is a tragedy for Fort Road and the wider community. Thoughts are with those affected
I hope the police put every resource into finding who did this. People cannot just kill someone and disappear into thin air.
RIP Hommie
Imagine someone’s son, father, or brother being killed lile that. This country is slipping, and it’s frightening
