21-Year-Old Employee At Subway, Montrose, Shot Dead Near Home In Tabaquite

A man is dead following a shooting incident in Tabaquite early Sunday morning (16th February, 2025). The deceased has been identified as 21-year-old Matthew Chancellor of Alleyne Street, Tabaquite. He was said to be an employee at Subway in Montrose, Chaguanas.

According to reports, Chancellor was shot and killed by a man armed with a shotgun at Cito Lane, Tabaquite, while returning to his home with other persons. The group was liming at a bar in the area hours prior to the fatal shooting.

After Chancellor was killed, the suspects allegedly went on a crime spree in the Tabaquite area — robbing someone on the pavement near a Church and robbing people on the bandstand, before stealing a resident’s white Nissan Tiida (PDC 1286) at gunpoint. The man also stopped by a shop, reversed, jumped a resident’s gate, kicked down the door, and stole a quantity of jewellery.

The stolen Tiida was found abandoned on Arena Road, Todd's Road, approximately twenty (20) minutes later, around 3:00 AM, byPC Sammy and PC Prince of the Longdenville Police Post. A black Nissan X-Trail is also believed to be linked to the crimes.
 

 

Residents staged a demonstration following Chancellor’s murder and the spate of robberies, calling for the immediate opening of the Brasso Police Station.

Investigations are continuing.

More on this as it becomes available.
