POLICE are probing an attempt to kill the daughter of a businessman in San Fernando yesterday.

The daughter of Rabindranath Maharaj, the owner of a chain of cellphone stores, narrowly escaped being shot when her vehicle came under gunfire while she drove along South Trunk Road near Halliburton.

Two .45 calibre bullets struck the driver’s door and the rear right door of the family’s white Range Rover when the shooter attacked around 10 a.m. The gunfire on the busy roadway was heard by residents of the nearby community of Green Acres in Cross Crossing.
