(Trinidad Express) Less than two months after a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed outside his Laventille home, two of his brothers, on Monday, also fell victim to gunmen close to their home.

Khalif Gomez, 22, and Ishmael Jackson, 21, were among four people murdered on Monday night in Laventille and St Ann’s.

Gomez, Jackson and Jerome “Micey” Pierre, 25, all of Mango Rose in Laventille, were reportedly ambushed by four gunmen after leaving a birthday party not far from their homes.

Ryan Gilkes, 33, of Charford Court in Port of Spain, was also found dead, lying along Mt Hololo Road, St Ann’s, with bullet wounds about the body, including the back of his head.
