A WELL-known Freeport man who was found shot dead on Saturday night at an apartment complex near the Xanadu Beach is believed to be Lester Adderley Jr.

The shooting occurred at the Blue Marina Cove apartments around 10pm, when police received reports of gunshots being fired in the area.

Inspector Terecita Pinder, of Grand Bahama Police, said officers went to Sunken Treasure Drive, where they discovered the lifeless body of a man in the parking lot of an apartment complex with gunshot wounds to the body.

Police have not released the victim’s identity and are investigating the incident, which is the island’s tenth homicide for 2015 and the 97th in the country this year, according to The Tribune’s records.

Adderley Jr, had been the owner of the former Mega Hits. He was one of several people questioned in connection with the death of Freeport businessman Constantino “Konkey” Vardoulis, 34, who was shot outside his Bahama Reef Boulevard residence several years ago.

Ms Pinder said police are searching for the person or persons responsible for Saturday’s shooting. “Police are actively investigating this matter and are appealing to members of the public who may have any information that can assist the police in locating the suspect(s) to contact them at telephone numbers 350-3107/12, 911/919 or call your nearest police station,” she said.
