Antigua records 2nd homicide for 2023

SOURCE: Loop Caribbean —  In less than a month another individual has been fatally shot in Antigua bringing the country’s murder toll for the year to two.

A Willikies man died Tuesday after fighting for his life for more than a week.

According to reports, Jahfari Isaac, 25, was shot in the head, thigh, side and scrotum, on June 4 while sitting outside a bar in his village at around 8 pm.

Over the weekend the police issued a wanted bulletin for another resident of the same village in connection with the shooting.

On Monday morning, the suspect surrendered to the police but is yet to be charged.

Isaac, the father of a 3-year-old girl, was shot just a few weeks after a 16-year-old reportedly killed a Syrian man in broad daylight.

Roudi Shamarly who is also 25, was the country’s first murder victim for the year.He was shot in broad daylight by an armed robber at a supermarket on DeSouza Road on May 22.

That person is now behind bars on remand having made an appearance before the Child Justice Board late last month.
