Aug 11, 2018 News

While the hunt continues for a murder suspect only identified as “Short boss”, who allegedly gunned down 21-year-old Ronsley Clarke, in Sophia on August 2, while he was at a party with his girlfriend, an autopsy revealed that Clarke died as a result of hemorrhage and shock due to multiple gunshot injuries.
Those injuries are one gunshot wound to the right side chest and one to the back.
Clarke and “Short boss” who reportedly knew each other, were at a dance on the night in question at “Blacka’s Shop”. Clarke was with his girlfriend, Alisha Thomas. At the time, the woman had said that everybody was “having a nice time, drinking and smoking”, when shots started to ring out. She said her boyfriend ran a short distance after the shots were fired, and fell to the ground.
One witness to the shooting said, “the man had a shine gun, the man draw, and buss ‘bout three shot in the banna. Everybody start fuh scatter. When we catch we self, the man girlfriend did hollering fuh he.” The suspect made good his escape just after committing the act.
Another individual who didn’t want to be named claimed the two men had just recently “had a falling out”. When asked as to what the “falling out” was about and when it occurred, the man said he didn’t want to get into that.
The police had issued statement just after the incident relating that, “The victim who received two suspected gunshot wounds to the right region of his body, was taken to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation in an unconscious state and was pronounced dead on arrival.”
Clarke’s body has been handed over to family members for burial preparations.
