Three days af­ter gun­men am­bushed and shot a La Brea labour­er dur­ing a beach­front lime in Point Fortin, he suc­cumbed to his in­juries.

Jamieel Pierre, 24, of Oil­belt Road, Ves­signy Vil­lage, died from mul­ti­ple gun­shot wounds at the Point Fortin Hos­pi­tal on Wednes­day. With his death, de­tec­tives from the Homi­cide Bu­reau of In­ves­ti­ga­tions: Re­gion Three have clas­si­fied the case as mur­der.

Po­lice said Pierre was with his girl­friend at the Clifton Hill Re­sort beach­front around 3.30 am on June 1 when she left to use the wash­room. Mo­ments lat­er, she heard a vol­ley of gun­shots. On re­turn­ing, she found Pierre sprawled on the sand with gun­shot wounds to his chest, back, and neck.
