Businessman Shot Dead In Valencia After Refusing To Pay ‘Tax’ — Police Investigating

A businessman is dead following a shooting incident in his yard in Valencia last night (Tuesday 23rd September, 2025). The deceased has been identified as Rasheed Ali of Plantation Road, Valencia. He was said to be a truck and backhoe owner.

According to reports, Ali was at home when he was ambushed and shot in his yard, around 10:30 PM.

Police and Emergency Health Services were notified. However, Ali succumbed to his injuries.

Further reports state that he was recently approached by unscrupulous individuals who demanded he pay them a “tax” (extortion money), which Ali refused to pay. Days later, unknown persons reportedly tampered with his vehicles by placing foreign substances into the fuel tanks.

Investigations are continuing into Ali’s murder.

More on this as it becomes available.
