Later on Sunday night, police responded to shots fired in Forest Home Village in Toledo. Fredrick Bahadur as well as Selvin and Winston Ramclam were sitting outside a wooden house when two persons travelling on a motorcycle rode up and fired a barrage of bullets in their direction. Bahadur and Selvin were hit; they were taken to the Punta Gorda Polyclinic, treated and released. Superintendent Alejandro Cowo says that the victims are not cooperating with police.
