NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Two men, one of whom was on bail for several murders, are dead following a shooting in the Fox Hill area.

Chief Superintendent Michael Johnson told the media that it was sometime around 8:45 pm (Monday) when police received information of gunshots being discharged in the area of the park in Fox Hill.

“When the officers arrived on the scene they met the lifeless bodies of two men that were north of the park,” he said. “EMS was called, examined the bodies and found no signs of life. These two persons were in the area talking when two males came from the rear of a trailer just north of the Jungle Club. One of the men was armed with a high powered weapon.”

Johnson, who is head of the Central Detective Unit, said the men then approached the victims, opened fire shooting them multiple times about the body.

“One of the victims is on bail for several murders and was being electronically monitored; he was in his mid-30’s,” the chief superintendent said.

“The other person is not known to police and in his late 30’s.”
