A second suspect has been arrested in connection with the fatal shooting at the Legends club in Somerset last Thursday.

A police spokesman said a 23-year-old male was being held.

The first suspect arrested at the weekend remains in custody, while a search continues for two others sought as part of the investigation.

One of the suspects still at large was believed to be injured at the scene, possibly by a gunshot.

The spokesman thanked people who had come forward to police with information that he said “helped us to significantly progress our investigation”.

Acting Detective Superintendent Jason Smith called on anyone with possible knowledge of the whereabouts of the suspect believed injured “to get in contact with us, in order that we may get them the medical assistance they require”.

He added: “The extent of those injuries is not known, but based on evidence retrieved, it appears to be serious.

“If you know who this person is or, where they might be but prefer not to contact police, then please get them to hospital as soon as is possible.”

Anyone who has not yet come forward to police with information on the shooting, which claimed two lives and left three other patrons injured, was urged to “please do so — no matter how insignificant you may think that information to be”.

Mr Smith can be contacted on 717-0864 or via e-mail at jsmith2@bps.bm.

Information can be given anonymously through the independent and confidential Crime Stoppers number, 800-8477.

The public can also report online at portal.police.bm or speak about the matter with a familiar officer.
