A 39-year-old man was shot and killed on Saturday night outside his home at Emon Lane, Valencia.<\/p>\n
The deceased has been identified as Keshawn Guy, also known as Abdul Aleem, of Emon Lane, Valencia, and Pinto Road, Arima.<\/p>\n
According to police reports, around 8:40 p.m. Guy was arriving at his home accompanied by a relative when the relative observed a man dressed in dark clothing emerge from behind a white tank nearby. The relative reportedly heard several loud explosions and saw Guy run off as the suspect gave chase.<\/p>\n
Further gunshots were heard shortly after, before the suspect fled the area via a forested track. Moments later, Guy was discovered lying motionless on the roadway with multiple gunshot wounds to the head.<\/p>\n
He was dressed in a white Muslim garment and blue three-quarter pants. Officers responding to the scene observed several spent shell casings in the vicinity of the body.<\/p>\n
The District Medical Officer later pronounced him dead. His body was removed under police escort and taken to the mortuary pending a post-mortem examination.<\/p>\n
Guy\u2019s killing comes amid a recent spike in violent incidents along Emon Lane, Valencia, following two earlier attacks in the area within the past week.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday night, April 21, 52-year-old Dexter Ferreira, an employee of the Arima Borough Corporation, was shot after stopping at a shop along Emon Lane. Around 10 p.m., residents reported hearing a series of explosions. Ferreira was later found with gunshot wounds and taken to the Sangre Grande Hospital, where he died shortly after 10:15 p.m.<\/p>\n
Less than 24 hours before Ferreira\u2019s killing, gunmen targeted a home in the same community, killing 49-year-old Shaun Charles and injuring his common-law wife. Police said that attack occurred shortly after 3:30 a.m. on April 20 while the occupants were asleep. Multiple shots were fired into the home, and several spent 9mm casings were recovered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 39-year-old man was shot and killed on Saturday night outside his home at Emon Lane, Valencia.
