A teenager was killed and his younger brother injured after assailants shot up the vehicle they were in as they left their brother's funeral on Saturday afternoon.
The shooting took place on Soldier Road around 1:30 p.m.
An 18-year-old, who was being electronically monitored, was driving on Soldier Road heading to the repast with his 14-year-old brother.
When they stopped at a traffic light at the intersection of Solider Road and Prince Charles Drive, a gold Honda pulled in front of them.
Two men exited the Honda, pulled black masks over their faces and began shooting, according to police.
The brothers were both shot multiple times.
The 18-year-old attempted to drive to the hospital.
Chief Superintendent Paul Rolle said police assisted them en route to hospital.
However, the 18-year-old was pronounced dead on arrival, according to police.
The 14-year-old was in critical condition last night, police said.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Stephen Dean said the older brother was recently released from Her Majesty's
Prisons (HMP).
They were attending the funeral of their older brother, who was murdered as he sat on a bus at the eastern end of Nicholls Court in Yellow Elder last month.
He said police are constantly challenged with violent incidents involving people on bail and being electronically monitored.
He called on all branches of the criminal justice system to work together to curb criminality in the country.
"We do our part by getting these people in front of the courts," Dean said. "We are doing it.
"We have to find a way as a country [for] all the systems of justice to work together, to help us, to make sure we keep these people locked behind bars.
"As long as they are on the streets, they are not going to work.
"They are going to continue a life of crime. They are going to continue to use firearms.
"They are going to continue to become a menace to society. We need everyone. We are at a crossroads right now."
Dean urged families of men and women who are released on bail to not "cloak" them or encouraged them to continue a life of crime.
Saturday's shooting pushed the murder count up to 116, according to The Nassau Guardian's records.
