A shooting incident occurred on River Street earlier today, near its junction with Emshall Road and Valley Road, opposite Alliance Française, resulting in one death and two injuries. The incident involved three male individuals who were reportedly waiting on the side of the road just before the Bath Estate Bridge, preparing to board a bus to go to work.
According to reliable sources, the victims are Curtison Charles, a male adult from Silver Lake; Jeanyves Bruno, a 26-year-old male from Canefield; and Maclet Dorceli, a Haitian national residing at Castle Comfort. Charles and Bruno were employed at the Cable Car Project in Laudat, while Dorceli was working on a hotel development in the same area.
It was reported that a grey car drove by and opened fire in the direction of the three men. Bruno was struck multiple times—on the left side of his chest, left thigh, and left arm—and was pronounced dead at 8:40 AM by Dr. Rena Alcendor. The other two victims, Charles and Dorceli, sustained injuries; Charles was hit in the left calf, and Dorceli received a gunshot wound to his left elbow.
Both are currently receiving medical treatment at the Dominica China Friendship Hospital.
The police are investigating the matter.

20years ago we planted an Evil tree and now the branches of that evil tree has expanded and bore evil seeds throughout the length and breath of Dominica and everything we see happening in Dominica today is as a result of that evil seed we planted
My deepest sympathy to those who mourn and speedy recovery to those dressing gun shots wound
I acknowledge and appreciate your passion against this monster called crime. What I don’t appreciate is for you to refer to people as codkroaches. I have seen and heard many kernel testimonies of career criminals who have turned their wayward life around ad becae productive members of society once given a fair opportunity to do better. Not all miscreants are irredeemable.
Most of us believe the Bible as God’s word. Well proverbs 29:2 is plain and simple and it reads “When the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice: but when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn.”
You see the last part? Dominicans are always mourning so isn’t it clear that the wicked ruling?
@smh
Garson you mad man? You want the world boss to fire the commissioner and all his command staff man? You forget its those same ghetto man that voting for him and getting money to keep others in line man? Thats what man like Dyce does not see. You see, Dca have ONE BIG PROBLEM and its the albatross them ghetto people and diaspora put on our back. Until he is out of office we can never get better. You see all them youth man dying? Ever ask about how the devil gets paid? Hmmmmmmmmmmmm
He went go again MEME supporting criminals and criminal activities.Just pray you and your family are not victims,every murder in Dominica MEME celebrate,a tormented soul.
@CLOWN
You can’t read and understand english. Your shameless illiterate.Reasons why that was your understanding. What do you expect from a clown.
Signs of a decaying society where money is put into trying to jail those who speak out against bad governance, but not enough on crime prevention.
let them drug man shoot each other when they all dead we will have peace in dca
@ the CLOWN
No, never. They are our brothers and sisters. Your comment is silly and idiotic as usual mister CLOWN.
Hope you don’t get caught in the cross-fire. Such a nonsensical idea! Innocent bystanders might die from stray bullets. THINK! Use your brain matter for once in your life.
The person called MEME is right. What do the law abiding citizens do? Cower in fear? Is the CDPF is alive? They install road blocks and search for guns when the opposition has planned a simple event. Other than that, those political idiots dont care, neither is SKERRIT or BLACKMORE.
Who else can you call upon to come to the help of the law abiding population?
Skerrit has said that he run tings in Dominica.He should be called upon to put a stop to the kllings, NOONE ELSE!
MEME is 1000000000000000% on point!
The only thing that Roosevelt run well in Dominica is CORRUPTION. He runs all other things – parliament, police force, economy, the whole civil service into the ground. That is factually correct!
Three were shot one died. The other two are nursing injuries. It’s a good thing that most of these thugs can’t shoot straight.
We walking right in St.Lucia foot steps
@Bwa-Banday
If measures are not taken soon, we will be worse.
It is as if St. Lucia and Dominica have a race to the bottom. Seriously, crime in Dominica is out of control. The missile pelting officers are only good at burgeoning unarmed, peaceful protesters with rubber bullets, teargas, stones, batons. The real criminals get a free pass. Oxymoronic !
Ironically the fact that they CAN’T shoot is the reason why the person that was shot was completely innocent. What a dumb thing to say. How about we shouldn’t have thugs shooting at people in the first place
Good Luck Dominica Good Luck.
Skerrit said in the past he run tings in Dominica…The blame is on him.
Dominicans cannot rely on luck. They have to put well thought out strategic plans in ace to stop this existential threat.
The citizenry of the country need to blame Blackmore and Skerrit for not trying to protect them from a looming crisis of unlicensed gun related deaths.
Skerrit, the LAZY and inveterate liar, bragged in a press conference, how his government will NOT allow unlicensed guns to take over the place. Did he give the penalty for those caught?
Is it a measly EC$10 000.00, which cant even buy a living room set? The criminals must be in glee.
How much more blood must be spilled before we see action by law abiding citizens?. Skerrit is the only Prime Minister in CARICOM, who goes after opposition parliamentarians to see if he can jail them, but he does not border with criminals with guns.
The MILLIONS you spend to jail those you do not like, should be spent on our safety Chi-Chi.
Come on Dominicans, this GLOATER must be voted out Lock Stock and BARREL.
He does not care about us!
What a WICKED SOUL!
MEME
Well, blame Skerro because he is Blackmore boss and does not see it fit to send him packing. Blackmore is sick and needs to go take care of himself but nooooooo, he loves the money a power so he will die on the job before he quits. The man used to be sharp and solid but recently he start looking like a Khalalee. Corbette may have his ways but let him loose on those criminals and believe me, in 6 moths Dca will be a paradise. He has a lot of Dayfoe but when it comes to policing he don’t mix matters.
error
bother NOT border
@MEME, did you encourage people to turn in their unlicensed fire arms when the government had the amnesty? The problem is not Skeritt or Blackmore it is people like you who see every issue in Dominica through political colored glasses.
@Silly Patrick
Why are you asking someone to do what you yourself didn’t do?
Think first, then write after, your silly commentator. The comment hurt you, so you had to say something, but please think first.
A nation of sheep gets a government of wolves. Dominicans are too docile like sheep they need to get more militant. It’ s time to stop turn the other jaw.
They doing drive by shootings now? We need to call martial law on all these ghetto areas. Sweep the blocks, pick up and interrogate all the idle people. Stop and frisk etc. There should be no peace in any ghetto or block. These cockroaches should know no rest
