Two injured in drive-by shooting at Amelia’s Ward

Both men were taken to the Linden Hospital Complex, where they were treated. The vendor was later transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation for further medical care, while the carpenter remains at the Linden Hospital Complex. Both are listed in stable condition.
