Nearly 100 people showed up for a peace rally at the House of Assembly at midday.

The event was organised by Antonio Belvedere to draw attention to increasing violence on the Island.

Six men carried a coffin representing all those who have died and will die, because of gun violence.

Kumi Harford, 30, was gunned down on St. Monica's Road last Saturday.

The incident marked the Island’s 14th shooting — and the second shooting death.

Mr. Belvedere said: “I am pleased with the turnout that we had today. It could have been more, it could have been less. I am pleased to say that I have done this.”

Representatives from the Progressive Labour Party, the United Bermuda Party and the Bermuda Democratic Alliance were persent.
