posted (January 13, 2016)

Last night we told you about the broad daylight attempted murder on Barrack Road. Well, tonight, police say they have two persons detained. They are 21 year old George McKenzie Jr of Pink's Alley and 18 year old Dane Gillett of Arlington Drive.

Police believe that just before 10:00 yesterday morning, Mckenzie chased 29 year old Leon Garcia into a car wash at the corner of Barrack road, followed him into a tool room, and fired a string of shots at him at close range. None of them found their target and the shooter fled in a waiting car.

Police believe it is the product of an ongoing rivalry between Victoria Street and Pink's Alley.
