Two persons are now warded in stable condition following a shooting incident at College Road Extension in St Augustine.

Around 9:40pm yesterday, officers responding to reports of loud explosions found a Nissan B14 parked at the side of the roadway with what appeared to be bullet holes.

They were then informed by residents that the victims had already been taken to the hospital in Mt Hope.

One of the victims, a 38-year-old man, said he was driving along College Road Extension when he heard loud explosions.

As he drove off, he felt a burning sensation on both hands and saw blood coming from his fingers.

The vehicle’s passenger, a 20-year-old woman, was treated for a graze to her head and the right side of her face.
