Police are investigating after a man was shot dead in Nassau Village on Sunday morning.
According to reports, shortly before 7am, the man had just arrived at a residence on Matthew Street in a blue Honda vehicle, when three males, believed to be armed with high-powered weapons, exited a light-coloured Japanese vehicle and shot him multiple times.
In an effort to flee, the victim drove a short distance but crashed into a fence at a residence on the street.
EMS workers arriving at the scene examined the man and determined he showed no signs of life.
The victim is believed to be in his late 20s or early 30s and is not known to police.
This comes a day after a man was shot dead in a car in the Yamacraw Beach Estates area.

The better part of our PM's legal career before full time politricks was devoted to defending drug lords and related gangsters. It is therefore difficult for him to formulate policies against violent criminals when he owes his own financial headstart in life to defending them.
The extreme violence in places throughout New Pridence like Nassau Village continues to spread like an aggressive cancer and will eventually leave no family unscathed on the island, including those self-imprisoned in gated communities.

With the US debt growing by $3 Trillion alone in 2023 alone to now exceed $34 Trillion and the US seemingly getting ready to get into another war, many Americans still see The Bahamas as a safe haven for whatever becomes the unavoidable result of these activities in a matter of months, weeks even. Add to that the fact that the US seems unable or unwilling to secure its southern border, despite evidence of thousands of undesirables entering that country on a daily basis and being dispersed throughout that country. And regardless of the outcome of the US Elections in November, many may find the results unfavorable and this may lead to additional unrest and turmoil. In fact many people are planning not to be in the US during the Elections. Hopefully everything will go peacefully and it be a peaceful transition. This is despite some not expecting Biden to answer the election bell and a replacement being found at the ninth hour. Hillary Clinton was ‘Bets Tested’ last year but her popularity ratings were lower than Biden’s. The Bahamian economy depends on a healthy Uas economy and a favorable government policy.
