BAUGHERS BAY, Tortola, VI- After receiving numerous calls about an alleged shooting outside a nightclub in Baughers Bay on Tortola, our newsroom decided to investigate and found the reports to be inaccurate.

After making contact with our senior police sources in the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF), we can confirm that there was no shooting in the early morning of May 27, 2017 at any nightclub in the area of the CSY Dock.

There was; however, an incident reported to police where a young man from Baughers Bay (name of whom we have withheld) was at a club located in the area of the CSY Dock when he was hit to the head with an object.

The man was taken to the state-owned Peebles Hospital in Road Town, where doctors also confirmed no gunshots to his body; however, the man has a fractured skull.

The man told his family that he was speaking to a female at the club and woke up in the hospital.

It is unclear if he remains at the hospital under doctors’ care; however, police are investigating this alleged incident.

      @Really. A lot of those young punks exhibiting the lack of attention not given to them by their parents in their development stage as young men. They can't even go out and have fun, always ready to cause trouble. The club need to step up security and whenever they get out of hand, security need to handle them the right way (teach them what their parents should have taught them at home) before police come.

      Nonsense. You people would want to see only churches on the islands if it was solely up to you boring people. Just to let you know, the churches have a number of incidents too, but they are mostly done in dark secrets until vino ready to uncovering some of those too.

        You speak for yourself, as we have a bad habit of generalizing everybody in the BVI because of a few bad apples.
