Investigators are probing two firearm-related incidents over the weekend, including a shocking discovery of a burning, bullet-riddled vehicle in Dock Yard.
On February 15, at approximately 4:02 p.m., police responded to a report of a vehicle ablaze near a residence in Dock Yard. Upon arrival, officers found a Toyota Vitz fully engulfed in flames, its exterior marked with multiple bullet holes. The scene was secured, and investigators launched a probe into the circumstances surrounding the fiery wreck.
Meanwhile, on February 14, 2025, at approximately 7:16 p.m., officers were called to Kew Town following reports of a robbery and shooting. A male victim in his 40s was later admitted to Cheshire Hall Medical Centre with a gunshot wound to the neck.
According to preliminary investigations, the victim was at a bar in Kew Town when a lone gunman approached and announced a robbery. The victim resisted, leading to a struggle with the armed assailant. During the altercation, the gunman fired a shot, injuring the victim, before fleeing in an unknown direction.
