Even as public concern continues to grow over the number of police-involved killings that have occurred since the State of Emergency (SoE) began on July 18, yet another man was killed by officers yesterday.
In the latest incident, a man identified only as Sharky was killed in an alleged shootout with police outside a house at Mc Shine Lands, Laventille, around 10.30 am. A second man who was also shot during the incident remained in critical condition at hospital last evening.
