There was another shooting in the city yesterday - this one happened in the evening.
Two fishermen on the Marine Parade pier were targeted. It happened at about 4:45pm. 38 year old Micheal Hemmans and 50 year old Shelton Reyes were cleaning fish on the sea wall near Marine Parade when a man exited a dark coloured van and began to fire shots at them. Hemmans jumped into the water and Reyes ran toward Golden Bay, neither of the men were shot.
The gunman got back into the vehicle and took off toward Newtown Barracks.
The vehicle was later found parked inside MCC parking lot. Two persons, one of them a minor, have been detained.
