Less than a week after Tobago recorded its eighth murder in Plymouth, Tobago police responded to another killing in the area.
Anthony Maynard of Plymouth was shot dead in a drive-by shooting around 10.30 pm. Three other people were injured and were transported to the Scarborough General Hospital for emergency medical treatment.
Guardian Media understands the shooting happened near the Plymouth cemetery.
This recent killing has pushed the island’s murder toll to nine for the year.
For the same period last year, Tobago had recorded four murders.
Last week Thursday, 29-year-old Nekisha Sandy was shot dead, a stone's throw away from Wednesday's drive-by.
Investigations into both incidents are ongoing
