Enterprise Businessman Joey Basdeo, owner of Joey and Laura Wholesalers of Enterprise Street, was fatally shot yesterday while exiting Reuben Lane in the community.
Reports state that around 2.30 pm, Basdeo, who was in the company of his wife and daughter, was driving out of Reuben Lane when a man on a bicycle approached the vehicle firing several shots at its occupants.
Basdeo’s four-year-old daughter was grazed by a bullet during the attack.
Basdeo was rushed to the Chaguanas Health Facility where he later succumbed to his injuries.
The murder was the first in the Enterprise area since a peace initiative took place last month led by members of the Unruly Isis Gang (now known as the Masjid of Peace) and the Islamic Front.
