As many as 12 shots were heard on Saturday morning in Bella Vista after a well known barber was executed inside his workplace. Marcus Che was shot nine times and surveillance footage caught the motorcyclist who arrived at his shop and quickly fled the scene after. So far police do not have a motive.
ASP Stacy Smith, Staff Officer
"Initial investigation reveals that on Saturday, 8th November, at around 11:47am, Che was inside his barber shop, namely Barberia Che when an unknown male person who wore a full face motorcycle helmet entered that establishment and fired a number of shots at Che, fatally wounding him. The male person who arrived at the establishment on a motorcycle subsequently made good his escape. The investigators have detained one person who they believe would be able to aid in this investigation and have also retrieved and are in the process of reviewing several video footages which are believed to be of evidential help."
