Two dead in Sucker Garden shooting…

Police were called late Friday evening in the Sucker Garden district after receiving word that a shooting incident in the area could have left two persons injured. Police Spokesman at the scene of the shooting told 721 news when they arrived they found the two victims dead in a white car from bullet wounds.

The man and the woman found dead are said to be 31 and 23 years respectively. Police are continuing their investigation into the shooting. No suspect is known as yet and a motive is yet to be ascertain.

It’s the first homicide so far for 2017 on St. Maarten. As Police are continuing their investigation into the shooting in Sucker Garden last Friday, an insider update says detectives have been carefull to consider all possibilities one of which seem to be concentrating on possible linkage to a string of murders involving a highly criminal ring that is seeking to eliminate players in what was described as a possible drug operation that went bad and a plot to get at all involved. The two victims may not have been involve in the chain of connnection but a family member of the 31 year old whom they are after could be the reason for the attack. The 23 year old female seem to have found herself in the wrong place with the right person at the right time to have been murdered. Police are not confirmimng a motive nor information as to who carried out the killing but is continuing their probe into the forensic evidence available to them from the crime scene and from those they have questioned.  At the moment the killer or killers remain at large.
