‘Tubin’ found dead in Carib Mountain

The body of a Murray’s Village resident was reportedly discovered in Carib Mountain, Campden Park on Wednesday, September 27, 2023 around 1:50 pm.

There appears to be some uncertainty about the cause of death with some media houses reporting that the deceased had been stabbed.

However SEARCHLIGHT understands that the Murray’s Village resident was shot.

A release from the St Vincent and the Grenadines Police Force (SVGPF) said that on arrival at the scene, police found the motionless body lying face down with what appeared to be several gunshot wounds.

The deceased has been identified as Augustus Prince, 36 years, who also goes by the alias ‘Tubin’. Prince was last seen alive earlier the same day in Murray’s Village.

A postmortem examination will be conducted on the body to ascertain the cause of
death.

Prince’s death brings the homicide count in St Vincent and the Grenadines to forty for the year so far.
