Security Guard Shot By Gunman at His Door

Kelvin Todd

Security guard, thirty-one-year-old Kelvin Todd is recovering from gunshot wounds to his left shoulder and left hand after a brazen Wednesday evening attack at his house. Todd was at home on Reggae Street sometime after four p.m., when someone knocked at his front door. But when he went to open it, in the doorway stood a man with a gun pointed at him. Instinctively, Todd began struggling with the man, but then decided to run off. As he did, he heard four shots and realized he was hit. Today, Police Commissioner, Chester Williams told reporters what investigators believe was the motive.
