A Maloney man was shot and killed on Tuesday night.
Police reports indicate that 32-year Joel Gibson was standing along the roadway outside of Building 4, Apartment 1-3 East, Maloney Gardens when a car pulled up alongside him at around 8:40 pm.
Gibson recognised one of the occupants of the vehicle and reportedly was heard shouting in disbelief when the attacker pulled out his gun and targeted him.
He ran away from the car in an attempt to flee his killer but was felled by gunfire.
The vehicle sped off, residents told the police.
Relatives of Gibson came to his aid and rushed him to the Arima District Health Facility.
However, he died at the facility while receiving treatment at 10.37 pm, police said.
His autopsy is expected to be done today at the Forensic Science Center in St James.
