Gunshots Leave One Person In Critical Condition

Police in Castries are investigating reports of shots fired on Sunday afternoon.

It happened just after 12:30 p.m. on Jeremie street in Castries.

Church goers reported hearing four to five-gun shots in the vicinity and seeing a huge crowd converge around the area.

ā€œOne man was on the ground and appeared to be bleeding from his neck,ā€ a frantic worshiper revealed, while another exclaimed that his ā€œface appeared to be peeling off.ā€

It is unclear what prompted the shooting on the day of worship, but witnesses believe the shooting was not a random event and it could be drug related.
