ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- Word reaching our news centre is that a male who was socialising in the area close to the Mill Mall in Road Town was involved in a gun incident.
The incident occurred last night, Friday, May 29, 2026, after 10:00 PM.
According to an eyewitness, “I only heard pop, pop, pop as I was on my way to an upstairs bar." It is alleged that a male who got into an altercation went to his vehicle for his gun, believed to be an automatic rifle. He then, according to reports, fired off a few shots in the air; however, no one was injured. It is believed the swift action of an off-duty police officer helped in the identification of the suspect.
The suspect is now in police custody awaiting charges. While our news centre has the suspect's name, we are unable to publish it pending action taken by the police. Up to publication time, police have not issued any statement on the matter.
