The murder toll moved to 413 Tuesday night, after the killing of a 33-year-old Morvant man. Police said Bane Joseph, of Pelican Extension, was standing at the corner of Leotaud and Parris Streets in Morvant around 9 pm when a man accosted, and shot him several times about the body.

Joseph died on the scene. Some two hours before Joseph’s killing, scores of spectators at a small goal football match were forced to scamper for safety when gunmen opened fire on a group of men in Laventille. Four men were wounded.

Police said around 7 pm, three gunmen stormed a basketball court at Trou Macaque while the match was in progress. The four people who were injured were identified as Dillon Ferdinand, 22, Lyndon Charles, 23, Natisa Benicourt, 19, and Keith Harris, 22. The men underwent emergency surgery at Port-of-Spain General Hospital.
