A Chinese man is in critical condition at the San Fernando general hospital after he was shot in the head by a man who robbed him of $100,000 yesterday. Jinyuan Ye, 24, was shot twice.

Police said, at about 11 am Ye was confronted by a gunman after leaving a bar at Duncan Village near San Fernando. Ye, it was reported, had won $100,000 from roulette machines and left the bar with the cash.

He drove off in a car parked nearby. Ye was taken to the hospital where he underwent emergency surgery.
