A 21-year-old man of St Joseph was shot and killed near his home on Sun­day af­ter­noon, in what po­lice sus­pect was a gang-re­lat­ed at­tack.

Po­lice said Isa­iah Den­nis was walk­ing on Cen­tre Trace, La Sei­va, St Joseph, around 4 pm, when he was ap­proached by two men he knew.

Res­i­dents lat­er re­port­ed hear­ing gun­shots,  They found Den­nis bleed­ing from the head and but­tocks.

Two men al­so were seen run­ning away from the scene.

Of­fi­cers of the St Joseph CID and the Homi­cide Bu­reau of In­ves­ti­ga­tions Re­gion II vis­it­ed the scene with a Dis­trict Med­ical Of­fi­cer who de­clared Den­nis dead.

Of­fi­cers of the Spe­cial Ev­i­dence Re­cov­ery Unit (SERU) found four spent 9 mm shells at the scene.

When Guardian Me­dia vis­it­ed the scene on Sun­day af­ter­noon, emo­tion­al rel­a­tives could be heard sob­bing.  They asked po­lice to view Den­nis' body be­fore it was re­moved.

Po­lice said Den­nis was known to di­vi­sion­al po­lice re­lat­ing to sev­er­al mat­ters.
