Diego teen shot Dead |
A 19-YEAR-OLD Diego Martin man has been shot dead. The teen, police said, was gunned down near his Quarry Street home early yesterday morning.
Richard Hercules, 19, was liming with friends outside his home shortly after midnight yesterday, when loud explosions were heard.
Residents in the area rushed Hercules to the St James Medical Complex where he succumbed to his wounds at about 4 am. Yesterday, at the Forensic Science Centre in St James, relatives told reporters that they are baffled as to who would want to kill him, or why.
“I don’t know him to be in anything,” said the teen’s father, Richard Snr, “He never complained and said anybody did anything to him. He was just a limer.” The elder Hercules told reporters that the junior worked as a security guard, however he had moved from firm to firm. Hercules said he did not find out about his son’s death until he arrived at work yesterday morning.
“It is really hard on me, his mother and his sister,” said Hercules.
“He was never involved in any gang activity. He was a little miserable when he was younger, but he grew out of it. He didn’t deserve to die like this. The most I can say is that I leave all of this in God’s hands, I know that he called my son home, and he is now in a better place.” Police officers have not determined
