At least three people were shot and injured in Haynesville, St James, last night. The incident left residents annoyed and the area tense.

The incident, which took place shortly before 6 p.m., was described by residents as indiscriminate shooting, following “cockfighting” in the district.

There were heated discussions among residents as to who was responsible for the shooting, with some pointing an accusing finger at police.

Details of the incident were still sketchy up to press time, with police not giving any information.

There was a heavy police presence at the scene, including members of the Task Force. Sniffer dogs could be seen combing the area. Firefighters from two fire tenders assisted in moving the injured from the gully, where the incident occurred, to the ambulances for treatment. (DB)
