Up to Wednesday, the men were still warded at the Male Surgical Ward of the MCMH and were moving around freely. They both refused an interview.

A man visiting the injured men was very vocal and told reporters, “We don’t talk to the media. If people say the man them get shoot innocent, what them have to say?”

The wounded men seemed upset that persons on Facebook had reported that they had died.

Vermont has become a hot spot recently.

Vermont resident Wendell ‘Bray Bray’ Ollivierre became this country’s 14th homicide victim on Tuesday, May 24. He was shot at Upper New Montrose/Monkey Hill. On Wednesday, May 18, Sheldon ‘Billy’ Pollin was gunned down while standing in a shop in Diamond, which he operated with his girlfriend. His cousin Richard ‘Richie’ Barnwell was shot three times during the same incident, but survived. Both men are originally from Vermont. Pollin’s nephew was also shot a few days before.
