Guyanese shot dead in St. Maarten
St Maarten – Police were busy most of Saturday night investigating a shooting that took place behind Patricia’s Bar on Sucker Garden Road.
Dead: Rondell Bobb
Dead is Rondell Bobb also known as “Bobb the Builder” (23), a national of Guyana, who was shot multiple times in a vehicle. Bobb is well known in the Sucker Garden area as being very creative with his hands as he builds almost anything. He was partially handicapped and is also known to be friendly.
Residents in Sucker Garden said they cannot imagine why anyone would shoot and kill Bobb. Some believed that he must have been in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people. Bobb was shot to death inside a vehicle which was parked behind Patricia’s Bar.
The vehicle was parked at the car wash located behind the bar.
Relatives of Bobb, at a loss for words, confirmed that Bobb does not own a vehicle and he was in someone’s car when he was shot multiple times. Some persons said they believe that the shooter who used a machine gun was after the second victim who was also inside the vehicle when the shooting took place.
A second person identified as Nino Brown is in critical condition at the St. Maarten Medical Center. Unconfirmed reports state that Brown recently came out of prison.
Chief of Police said the shooting took place sometime around 10pm behind Patricia’s Bar. Chief Prosecutor Hans Wesslink said he knew of the shooting but up to Sunday afternoon he did not have further information. (St. Martin News Network)
