A MAN who police wanted to question in connection with a murder that took place at a bar on Quintine Alley and Wulff Road earlier this year was found by Haitian authorities in that country after he skipped town, senior police officials confirmed yesterday.
Assistant Commissioner of Police Clayton Fernander confirmed that the suspect was found in Haiti by Haitian law enforcement officials about two weeks ago.
ACP Fernander told The Tribune that the Royal Bahamas Police Force (RBPF) is currently “doing the necessary paperwork” to have the suspect returned to the Bahamas to be questioned by local police.
“It is confirmed and we are just doing the necessary paperwork to get him back here,” ACP Fernander told The Tribune.
An all-points bulletin was previously put out by the RBPF for the suspect following a shooting incident that left a man dead and another detained in hospital on March 25.
According to reports, shortly after 1.30am on the day in question, two men were at a club located on Quintine Alley and Wulff Road when they were shot. The two men were taken to hospital where one of them later died. The other man was said to be in stable condition.
The victim, said to be 32-year-old John Hutchenson, was reportedly killed just two days before his birthday.
