Confirmed Firearm Incident on Field View Lane: No Reported Injuries
Sun, 2020-02-16
The Bermuda Police Service is investigating a confirmed firearms incident which occurred shortly before eight a.m. on Sunday 16th February.
Officers were called out to Field View Lane in Pembroke following several reports of multiple gunshots being heard in the area.
Reports are two men wearing dark clothing rode into the area on a dark coloured motorcycle. One of them got off the bike, ran to one of the nearby Bermuda Housing Corporation apartments and fired several shots into one of the units.
The suspects then made good their escape.
Upon arrival officers recovered forensic evidence which confirmed a firearm was discharged outside the residence. There have been no reports of any injuries.
This is the fifth firearms incident in the last two weeks and there is growing concern over the indiscriminate nature of these crimes which could have resulted in loss of life of individuals who were not the intended target.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Inspector Kenten Trott of the Serious Crime unit on 717-2345, the main police number, 295-0011 or the independent and confidential Crime Stoppers number, 800-8477.
