As a reminder, a 35-year-old resident of a Carénage residence was shot in the back on May 11 in front of his residence.
The investigation entrusted to the police station, then to the DTPN criminal brigade, established that the victim, wishing to go to work, was prevented from leaving the parking lot of his residence by poorly parked vehicles. He was going to ask, in the neighboring bar, that the owner of the car move it, which led to an altercation, then an individual with a handgun shot the victim.
Reported on the run
According to the public prosecutor, Caroline Calbo, a suspect was “quickly identified”. He is a 19-year-old man, born and living in Les Abymes. He was reported to have fled to Dominica after the incident. A search warrant and then an international arrest warrant were issued. He was arrested in execution of this warrant on November 5. Brought before the investigating judge in charge of the case on November 6, 2024, he was indicted for murder, then placed in pre-trial detention.
For now, the investigation continues.
