A man was shot dead in front of his home off Cowpen Road last night, according to police.
While details were limited, police said the man, who is believed to be in his late 40s, was standing in front of his home shortly after 7 p.m.
Eyewitness accounts revealed that a vehicle pulled up alongside the home before its occupants fired several shots.
The victim was shot multiple times, police said.
He died at the scene.
According to police, the victim was an employee at Doctors Hospital. A hospital official was at the crime scene last night, according to police.
This latest killing pushed the murder count for the year to 104.
The country recorded its 103rd murder less than 24 hours before that incident.
A woman was stabbed to death in her home off East Street South by a man who was believed to be her boyfriend, police said.
Reports are that police got a call around 8:10 p.m. that a woman was lying dead in a pool of blood in a house on Alfred Way off Winder's Terrace.
Chief Superintendent Clayton Fernander said police found the woman, 19, on the floor in her bedroom with several stab wounds.
"We believe it is domestic, but we are still following that line to confirm," Fernander said at the scene.
"As a result of the information from the scene, officers went to Carmichael Road where they arrested a young man in his early 30s, believed to be the boyfriend of the victim."
The Nassau Guardian understands that the victim, who was a Bahamas Technical and Vocational Institute cosmetology graduate, would have celebrated her 20th birthday yesterday.
