14-year-old shot at home by two masked gunmen

A 14-year-old Morvant teen-ager was shot once in the stomach by two gunmen who stormed into his Plover Gardens, Morvant home on Wednesday night.

Checks with the Port-of-Spain General Hospital revealed that the teenager was in serious condition. According to reports, around 7.30 pm  Sheldon David was at his home when two masked men armed with guns entered and shot him in the stomach. He was rushed to the Port-of-Spain General Hospital where he was treated and warded. Police investigators claimed that the shooting is linked to the recent murder of known gang member Nigel “Naye” King.

King, 36, was shot several times while sitting on a wall at the home of his friend Vodrick Lee Kim, at Mon Repos, Morvant. The killer reportedly walked up to the two and shot King in the shoulder and chest before fleeing the scene. King was rushed to the Port-of-Spain General Hospital and warded at the Intensive Care Unit. He died around midday on Saturday. Investigators said that they are yet to secure a statement from the injured teenager. Officers of the Morvant CID are investigating.
