A Campden Park man was shot in the abdomen in his home village Friday night.
Police say they are investigating the circumstances surrounding the shooting of 31-year-old electrician Alphanzo Weekes, which occurred about 7:45 p.m.
A relative of the injured man told I-Witness News that Weekes does a barbeque every weekend, and was conducting that activity when a masked person approached and fired a shot, hitting him in the abdomen.
Weekes was the only victim of at least three shootings to survive their attack on the weekend.
On Saturday, the body of Rillan Hill resident 34-year-old Miranda “Wiggy” Williams was found in Penniston.
Police say she was shot around 10:50 p.m. Friday.
On Monday, villagers discovered the body of 25-year-old Roger Bramble along the banks of a stream in an area of Brighton called “Quata”.
Residents said they had heard repeated gunfire Saturday night, but members of the Rapid Response Unit (“Black Squad”) who responded to the call found nothing.
Meanwhile, police also said on Monday that they arrested and charged on Saturday Rondell Spring, a 21-year-old farmer of Chateaubelair, with unlawfully discharging a firearm at Kenny Isaac, 25, a farmer of same address, at Chateaubelair on Feb. 28.
And we still have people saying SVG isn’t dangerous. In a little 2 by 2 place like SVG my worst fears have to reality, with these guns on the streets no one is safe. The going rate for assassination in SVG now is $200EC dollars, just imagine paying to get 2 people killed and getting the third killed for free. It’s a sad state of affairs, if people are willing to kill for as little as $200EC, we need to try something new and quick because this is too much for SVG,
We need to get young people employment and get the guns off the street, too many angry young people in SVG with guns now.
How do u know the going rate? You seems to have paid or someone paid you $200. I’ll bet you person knows the rate. Killings in SVG is not random. Most are gang/drug related
Hmm…noting to see here. Nothing at all. It’s just another lovely, peaceful day in law abiding, functional SVG. I swear!!! What are we worrying about? Don’t we know that all these violent incidents are just anomalies?

Don’t be stupid. One thing you have to realize is that in a small little country like SVG things comes out and people here things. Like the old saying goes in Vincy. ” when you think ah bush, ah people”

The safest man in the country now is the one walking around with 6 body guards everywhere he go in a country where he says he is the most loved PM ever. Stop trying to be an idiot and pay attention to the crimes that have taken our country down the toilet. I am sick and tired of Vincentians trying to defend nonsense.
The only way to stop the killing in svg is to put them to
death.
