Innocent bystander Jeremiah Britto, who was shot dead near his Lower Santa Cruz home on Saturday night, was an expectant father and was looking forward to settling down with his girlfriend.

Britto, 24, was killed when gunmen opened fire on his neighbour Angelo Leandre, 31, who was at the time washing a gold-coloured Nissan Almera on the roadway.

Police believe Leandre, who died after being shot several times, was the intended target, while Britto, who also sustained gunshot wounds, was an innocent bystander.
