Vendor shot at while conducting sales; suspect at large

Police are searching for the suspect who shot at a 60-year-old vendor while he was conducting sales in Freeport on Sunday 10th December.

Around 7:00pm, the victim was reportedly conducting sales at a stall along Orange Field Road, when he was confronted by a man with whom he had an argument earlier that day.

The man allegedly pulled out a firearm and shot in the direction of the victim, who ran into a neighbour’s yard for safety.

The suspect then fled the scene and the police were notified.

A team of officers from the central division responded and searched for the suspect still at large.

The officers also recovered 11 spent shells at the scene.
