A 29-year-old Peruvian man was shot and killed at Road View, St Peter, Saturday night.

Police say the owner and an employee of a Chinese restaurant and bar located along that street had just closed up the business and were about to leave, when they were attacked by two armed gunmen.

Shots were fired, and the owner fled, but the employee received injuries, which proved to be fatal.

An ambulance was summoned to the scene, and on arrival, the EMT checked the injured man and found no sign of life. The victim was later pronounced dead at the scene by a medical doctor.

While investigations continue, the deceased’s relatives have to be informed in Peru before his identity is released to the public.

The report was received around 10:50 p.m. (PR/SAT)
