Police are continuing their investigations into the death of 34-year-old Kevon Austin, who was shot dead in Tacarigua on Saturday night.
Austin was in a party a short distance from his home, near Alexander Street, Tacarigua, when he got into a confrontation with a group of men while leaving the party.
During the confrontation, one of the men pulled out a firearm and shot Austin several times about the body.
He died on the scene.
Officers of the Northern Division yesterday received key information and were said to be conducting exercises with the intent of arresting a group of suspects. However, up to press time, no arrest had been made.
Speaking to the media yesterday, at the Forensic Science Centre in St James, Austin’s relatives said they were shocked by the incident.
They noted the family was expected to hold a Mother’s Day lime at their Tacarigua home, but they were forced instead to conduct a wake.
It was noted Austin “was not perfect”, noting he had a chequered past, but they said he did not deserve to be killed in such a manner.
