(Trinidad Express) A 22-year-old Valencia man was gunned down yesterday afternoon near the home of his relatives located off Sparrow Drive, Petit Valley. Police believe that the victim, Tyrus Ramlogan, may have been hiding out in the area.
Officers said that around 3 p.m. Ramlogan had stepped out of the home of his relatives at Hummingbird Circular, which is off Sparrow Drive, when they heard six gunshots.
They walked out just in time to see Ramlogan running from his shooter.
He ran a short distance heading towards a track where he collapsed. Within minutes he was dead.
Police officers from the Homicide Bureau and the Western Division were on the scene and said that Ramlogan was not known to them.
They added, however, that they were told that he left his Valencia home two months ago to live in Petit Valley, but no one could say why.
The murder toll stood at 291 up to press time last night.
