A man known locally as “Messi”, the surname of internationally famous soccer player, was found dead with gunshot wounds in Fitz Hughes, on Thursday.
Police have launched an investigation into the death of Saville Murray, Jr., a 28 years farmer/block maker of Richmond.
Police said that around 5:20 a.m., on Thursday, they were alerted to what appeared to be a lifeless body lying on the ground in Golden Grove, Fitz Hughes.
Officers who responded discovered the motionless body of the deceased with multiple gunshot wounds.
The district medical officer visited the scene and pronounced the Murray dead.
A post mortem examination will be conducted on the body to ascertain the exact cause of death.
The motive for the shooting is unknown, police said.
Anyone with information that can assist with this investigation are asked to call, 1-784-456-1339, 1-784-458-2229, any police station or police officer they are comfortable with.
All information would be treated confidentially, police said.
This is useless, bare wickedness. In the height of recovery of the volcanic eruptions, and Covid-19 incorrigible rogues still see it fit to be roaming SVG and murdering innocent people.
Too many innocent blood is crying out.
How do these perpetrators function daily having committed these heinous crimes? Where are your souls, how do you sleep, eat, and dwell among others? Jesus, Lamb of the crucified do expose these killers in Jesus’ name.
Better policing is the key to uprooting these COLD CASES. The land is crying out for justice.
#ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
May the soul of the departed sleep comfortably.
Condolences to those that mourn his loss.
