Drive by shooting in GT

(CNS): An investigation by George Town Criminal Investigation Department is now underway following an unconfirmed report of a shooting in School Road this morning. Police said that an on-duty officer was told that shots had been fired in the Rock Hole area from a car on Friday 12 September at around 11:50am.

The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service responded to the scene and were told a car had passed and fired shots. No-one was hurt in the incident. Officers investigating are aware that there are rumours circulating that it could be connected to the earlier bomb hoax. The RCIPS would like to stress that there is no evidence at this point to confirm this and it is too early to jump to conclusions.

Anyone with information about crime taking place in the Cayman Islands should contact their local police station or Crime Stoppers on 800-8477 (TIPS). All persons calling crime stoppers remain anonymous, and are eligible for a reward of up to $1000, should their information lead to an arrest or recovery of property/drugs.
