A 37-year-old man was shot multiple times and killed early on Monday morning as he pulled into the driveway of his Mermaid Boulevard home.

According to reports, shortly after midnight, the victim had just pulled into his driveway through Walton Street and was sitting in his car when he was approached by a man in a black hooded jacket.

The gunman opened fire on the vehicle hitting the victim multiple times. The man was able to run out of the car into a neighbour's yard for help but collapsed and died a short time later.

Police have not identified the victim but The Tribune understands he is Ronald Sands.

The shooting marked the second homicide in 12 hours and took the country's murder count to 102 for the year, according to The Tribune's records.
