Unidentified man shot on Duncan Street

Police are seeking the public's help in identifying the body of a man who was found shot to death on Duncan Street, Port of Spain yesterday.

Police said they received a report of gunshots a stone's throw away from the Duncan Street Police Post.

When they checked they found a man of African descent, lying in a pool of blood near a pan yard.

First responders cordoned off the area, and Crime Scene Investigators processed the scene.

The body was then removed to the Forensic Science Centre in St James.

Pathologists would have to wait until the body is identified before any post-mortem examination could be performed.

The murder toll for the year now stands at 339 for the year.
