POLICE are investigating the circumstance surrounding the death of a man at a home on New Providence on Sunday. 

Police said they were called to a residence on Yamacraw Hill Road shortly before 5pm after receiving reports that the lifeless body of an adult male was discovered on the lawn. Paramedics were called to the scene, attempted to revive the male, but were unsuccessful. He was pronounced dead at the scene.

An autopsy will be performed to determine the exact cause of death.

Police are also looking for the suspects responsible for an armed robbery which occurred on Monday. Shortly before 2am, a male was driving his vehicle east on Soldier Road in the vicinity of Kennedy Subdivision, when a trailing vehicle occupied by two men, slammed into his vehicle from behind forcing him to stop. Once at a stop, one of the males armed with a firearm fired a shot in his direction, which caused him to jump out of the vehicle and flee into nearby bushes in fear for his life, police were told. 

The assailants took the man’s rust coloured 2004 Infinity G35, licence plate AP9581, and left the scene.

Police are appealing to anyone who may have information that can assist with these investigations to contact the Central Detective Unit at 502-9991/2, Crime stoppers at 328-TIPS (8477) or the nearest police station.
