A man was violently shot in the head during an incident
on Sydney Street in Chippingham tonight.
He was pronounced dead on the scene.
Residents say it was an armed robbery that turned fatal.
It comes days after three people were shot during an incident in Garden Hills, leaving one man dead and his girlfriend and another man in hospital.
It has been widely speculated that the Minnis Administration has decided to keep the 10pm to 5am curfew in place on New Providence, despite boasting of a drop in COVID-19 cases, to reduce the level of the crime.
However, murders have jumped by over 50 percent while armed robberies have increased by over 40 percent when compared to the first six months of 2020.
