Mandeville Businessman Shot Dead During Robbery
61 year old Mandeville businessman Vincent Young, of a Beverly Green address in Manchester, was reportedly shot and killed by gunmen during a robbery at his supermarket in Mandeville yesterday.
According to police reports, Young and his wife were closing their business place last night at approximately 10:15 p.m. when four men, three armed with guns, approached and demanded money. He refused and the gunmen opened fire, hitting him several times. Young reportedly pulled his licensed revolver and fired at the men, but not before they took a bag with an undetermined sum of cash and cheques, as well as his wife’s handbag.
The robbers reportedly escaped in a white Toyota motor car. Young was taken to the Mandeville hospital where he was pronounced dead.
