BASSETERRE, St. Kitts – WHAT seemingly began as a casual walk from one part of Cayon to the next ended in a shooting incident that left two men nursing gunshot wounds.
Reports were received by SKNVibes at about 7:05 last night that Terrence ‘Bol’ Wharton of Upper Cayon and Leon Griffin originally of Nevis, were shot while in the Upper Cayon area. The reports also suggested that the assailant(s) drove up to the men in an unmarked vehicle and started shooting while they were walking from Upper Cayon to Lower Cayon.
Investigations conducted by SKNVibes revealed that the incident left Griffin with two gunshot wounds to his leg(s) and ‘Bol’ with one to his left leg.
This media house understands that while the men were in the vicinity of the junction connecting Water Works and Upper Cayon, they were ambushed and shots were fired at them.
Bol, according to reports, was whisked away from the scene in a private vehicle and taken to the Joseph N. France General Hospital

Griffin, on the other hand, was transported to the same medical institution but by the Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Unit.
SKNVibes learned that during an emergency operation last evening, Bol’s left leg had to be amputated from the knee down because all the major blood vessels were destroyed. Griffin is however said to be in stable condition. ~~Adz:Left~~
