ONE MINUTE JERIEL BYNOE was liming with friends listening to music. The next, he was on his knees, disabled with two gunshots.

And while he somehow managed to escape with minor injuries, the 18-year-old and his family members are trying to piece together the puzzle which led to him being shot just behind the Survival Bar and Grocery in the Glebe, St George on Monday night.

Bynoe, a mechanical student at the Samuel Jackman Prescod Polytechnic (SJPP), was shot in his left hand and left side while at his customary liming spot just after 10 p.m.

In an interview with the MIDWEEK NATION from his home in Valley Land, St George – a stone’s throw away – Bynoe recounted the ordeal. (RB)
