A teenag­er is among two peo­ple dead fol­low­ing a dri­ve-by shoot­ing along Fon­cette Road, Cas­cade this evening.

Res­i­dents said around 6:45 pm, a white AD wag­on was seen dri­ving through the area.

Two men, wear­ing black ski masks ex­it­ed the car and opened fire up­on a group of men who were gath­ered at car wash in the area.

Killed in the melee was 16-year-old Mic­ah Fon­cette and Lin­coln 'Yan­kee' Go­piechan, 37.

The gun­men re­turned to the ve­hi­cle and es­caped.

Go­piechan died at the scene and Fon­cette, a St An­tho­ny's Col­lege, was tak­en to hos­pi­tal where his death was con­firmed.

His iden­ti­ty was con­firmed to po­lice on the scene by his rel­a­tive, na­tion­al goal­keep­er Adri­an Fon­cette.

An­oth­er man, Che Nor­ton, 18, was al­so hit and is hos­pi­talised.
