And the sound of gunshots wasn't just limited to the city, they also rang out down south when Seine Bight resident Frank Augustine found himself in a gunman's line of fire.
Here's what ASP Yearwood had to say about that incident.
ASP Fitzroy Yearwood, Communications Officer
"So far I received a preliminary report stating that Seine Bight resident Frank Augustine was leaving an establishment and upon opening the door for his vehicle, a single gunman approached him and opened fire on him injuring him and now he is in the hospital with a gunshot wound to the chest. Police are looking for a person that is known to them and hopefully by detaining that person we could get some kind of how to say information enough to warrant an arrest."
Reports are that Augustine claims the incident transpired with a police mobile parked nearby but when asked that question this morning ASP Yearwood said that Augustine should have been trying to identify his assailant not looking across the street.
