Stanley-Caruth returned fire at the man who re-entered the vehicle which sped off.

A party of officers assigned to the Tobago Divisional Task Force and the Criminal Investigations Department, led by Senior Superintendent Joanne Archie, was dispatched to the scene. Based on information received, the

officers subsequently went to Guadaville Heights, Tank Road, Signal Hill where the vehicle, with registration number PDH 5313, was recovered and taken to the Scarborough Police Station for further examination.
