\"\"<\/p>\n

Dominica News Online (DNO) has been reliably informed that a shooting incident which occured earlier today near the post office in Massacre, involved a police officer and a civilian.<\/p>\n

Information from credible police sources indicates that the civilian and another individual were involved in an altercation when a police officer intervened and a shooting ensued.<\/p>\n

At present, it is unclear what led to the shooting which resulted in the victim receiving a gunshot wound to his thigh but in a now widely circulated video, the civilian is\u00a0 seen on the ground while the police officer holding the weapon is standing above him.<\/p>\n

DNO was told that the wounded man left the scene but he was later apprehended by other officers who transported him to the Dominica China Friendship Hospital (DCFH) for medical attention.<\/p>\n

Police say once he is discharged, he will be taken into custody to assist with their investigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Dominica News Online (DNO) has been reliably informed that a shooting incident which occured earlier today near the post office in Massacre, involved a police officer and a civilian.
