A shoot­ing in Wood­brook ear­ly yes­ter­day morn­ing led to the death of a woman and the wound­ing of a man.

Po­lice said of­fi­cers of the Port-of-Spain Di­vi­sion re­ceived a re­port of a shoot­ing on Car­los Street just af­ter 12 am and went to the scene.

On reach­ing the area, they found a sil­ver Hyundai Elantra in the mid­dle of the road near the traf­fic lights.

In­side, the of­fi­cers found a 30-year-old St Barb’s Road man bleed­ing from gun­shot wounds in the dri­ver’s side seat and Teneisha Jack­ie in the pas­sen­ger side al­so bleed­ing from gun­shots.

Po­lice took both Jack­ie and the bleed­ing man to the Port-of-Spain Gen­er­al Hos­pi­tal, where Jack­ie was de­clared dead at 12.20 am.

Po­lice said fur­ther en­quiries re­vealed that the cou­ple were trav­el­ling in the Hyundai Elantra when a pur­ple Nis­san Qashqai drove near them. Two gun­men got out of the car and shot at their car be­fore get­ting back in and dri­ving off.

Po­lice from the Homi­cide Bu­reau of In­ves­ti­ga­tions Re­gion I are con­tin­u­ing en­quiries.
