(Trinidad Express) Killers, you have reached your mark.
While the rest of the country celebrated the festive season, two men were murdered on Saturday, bringing the number of people murdered in T&T for 2009 to 500, according to a Sunday Express tally.
On Saturday, the murder toll reached 43 less than last year around the same period with two men being killed in separate incidents, some three hours apart. Homicide detectives have placed the murder toll at 497.
The men that made the 500 mark were Glenon Holder, 23, and Keith Molino, 29.
The first to have his life taken away by gunmen was Molino of Sanchez Street, Arima. According to police, Molino alias ’Zaza’ was shot dead around 3.30 a.m on Saturday, moments after he left the Flavour Sports Bar, Cocorite Road, Arima, where a Christmas lime was in full swing.
Molino, who police said is known to be in the illegal drug trade, was hit once in the head after a volley of shots were fired at him. He collapsed and died on the corner of Cocorite and Heni Street, Arima.
