A 17-year-old boy who is believed to have been struck by a stray bullet early yesterday while standing outside a popular night spot on Main Street, Georgetown, is now hospitalized in a critical condition at a city hospital.
The teenager was shot a little before 01:00hrs yesterday in the presence of a group of his friends.
The injured teen has been identified as Joseph Johnson, son of the owner of Nigel’s Supermarket. He was shot to his face and has been admitted in the private hospital’s Intensive Care Unit.
According to police sources, the shooter is a licensed firearm holder and has surrendered himself to police. The source added that the shooter claimed that he was inside the club and noticed a man trying to break into his car.
“He said that he opened fire to scare away the man but mistakenly shot Joseph,” the source added.
