Police investigators are probing the murder of a Campbellville Housing Scheme, Georgetown resident, who was shot and killed during the wee hours of Sunday in North Ruimveldt, Georgetown.

Dead is Joseph Wilkinson also known as ‘Dreddy’.

The News Room understands that Wilkinson was attending a wake in the community when he received a phone call and stepped away to answer.

Shortly after, a car appeared and the occupant/s opened fire on Wilkinson before escaping.

Wilkinson was shot several times about his body.

He was rushed to a city private hospital where he was pronounced dead.
