Update: The live broadcast has concluded and the 14-minute replay is below

“This was a brazen gun attack in a popular restaurant and it certainly signifies a new level of callousness and brazenness.

“We’ve been here before, we’ve brought people to justice before, and I think that’s important to remember. The disregard for human life by these gunmen necessitates that we examine who we are as a people. Our small island nation often represents the very best in the world; unfortunately, this signifies us at our very worst.

“I wish to reassure our community that the Bermuda Police Service will work to stabilize our community and bring all the resources at our disposal to bring those offenders to justice.”

Anyone with information is urged to call 211, the main police number, 295-0011 or Crime Stoppers on 800-8477.

Update 3.52pm: Detective Chief Inspector, Peter Stableford said, “I would like to provide an update on the investigation into the shooting which occurred about 6.00 pm last night where two young men have been murdered. I can confirm the identity of the individuals as Micah Davis who was celebrating his 22nd birthday yesterday and Ayinde Eve who was 27 years old. Another 2 persons were also shot but did not receive life threatening injuries. The bar at the time had a number of patrons who were there to watch the football and it was busy.

“Anyone on the premises between 3 pm and 6 pm yesterday is asked to get in touch with us if we haven’t spoken to you yet as you may have information that is vital to enquiry – please call 211 or crime stoppers on 800-8477.

“What we know at this stage is that 2 gunmen on a black motorcycle attended the Robin Hood Public House both were wearing black helmets and dark pants, the rider wore a dark top and passenger a light coloured top. I repeat a black motor cycle with 2 persons the rider in dark pants and top, with the passenger in dark pants and light top both with black helmets.

“The passenger had gone into the premises and shot a number of times at the patrons. Ayinde ran from the premises out into the rear car park where the second gunman and rider of the cycle was waiting. Ayinde was shot a number of times by the second gunman riding the black motor cycle. Both gunmen have left on the cycle and are believed to have travel out of the city via Bandroom Lane and onto Glebe Road shortly after 6.00pm.

“The investigation at this stage is that this is a gang related attack which has was carefully planned and carried out. Over 20 rounds of ammunition were discharged in the attack by both gunman. The third victim was associated to the deceased remains in hospital and the fourth was an off duty police officer enjoying the football with friends who was treated for gunshot wounds to his hands and discharged.

“The appeal today is for people with dash cams, home CCTV and video door bells to have a look at your footage from 5 pm to 7 pm last night and if you see anything to get in touch – these gunman had to set up and ready themselves somewhere in our community and had to drive back somewhere.
