The usual hustle and bustle continued as normal along Charlotte Street, Port-of-Spain, yesterday, hours after a shooting on Saturday night that claimed the life of a former national footballer and left two others injured.
Police said Tekay Hoyce, 27, of Richardson Lane, Laventille, was pursued and shot multiple times by two gunmen around 6.25 pm on Saturday.
The former Under-17 footballer died on the pavement, crouched in a corner against the statue of a Chinese dragon. Hoyce was shot in the left shoulder, upper chest, and head. The gunmen then turned their weapons on passers-by, creating a diversion to escape in a waiting vehicle.
