(Barbados Nation) A father’s dream to be at his son’s graduation yesterday ended tragically Monday night when he was gunned down outside his home.
Elvin Adolphus Thomas, a 59-year-old supervisor of the Barbados Water Authority (BWA), was killed execution-style when he disembarked from his jeep in the garage of his home at Lower Estate, St Michael.
An eyewitness told the MIDWEEK NATION of seeing an unidentified man repeatedly shoot Thomas who slumped to the ground moaning.
“It was about 12 or 13 shots. He shoot Thomas about seven times and when he [Thomas] fell to the ground, he [gunman] went over Thomas and began shooting him again,” the eyewitness said.
