Jolly died from multiple gunshot wounds on Thursday evening<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

A drive-by\u00a0shooting in the community of Bath Estate has resulted in death of local artist Ron Garth Jolly of Louisville.<\/p>\n

Jolly, who was known the entertainment industry as Burn Brain Jolly succumbed to multiple gun shot wounds last evening\u2013May 12, 2022.<\/p>\n

While an official statement from the police has not yet been released, Dominica News Online (DNO) was reliably informed by police sources that on the aforementioned date, shortly after 10:00 p.m., Jolly and a group of friends were in the community of Bath Estate when a vehicle approached them and an occupant opened fire.<\/p>\n

Jolly was rushed to the Dominica China Friend Hospital (DCFH) where he succumbed to his injuries and was officially pronounced dead.<\/p>\n

Police have since launched an investigation into the homicide.<\/p>\n

Jolly was among artists expected to perform at The Mall in Bellevue this evening.<\/p>\n

This brings to seven the number of homicides that have been recorded for the year so far in Dominica.<\/p>\n

DNO will continue to follow this story and report any new development as it becomes available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A drive-by\u00a0shooting in the community of Bath Estate has resulted in death of local artist Ron Garth Jolly of Louisville.
