Victim: Joshua Robinson, 31.
Date and location of murder: June 23, 2012, Jason’s Barber Shop, North Shore Road, Pembroke.
Circumstances: The daylight murder of Mr Robinson, in front of customers at Jason’s Barber Shop, a small business that was a meeting point in its community, once more sent shock around the island.
Two men on a motorbike pulled up at the establishment at about 5.15pm, with the gunman running inside and opening fire, leaving Mr Robinson, a young father, mortally wounded.
He was said to have been attacked while sitting in a barber’s chair.
The two assailants fled west on the motorcycle.
Police branded the attack premeditated and gang-related. The community rallied around the stricken establishment, which reopened for business with bolstered security.
The murder was especially painful to the victim’s loved ones, as Mr Robinson was cousin to Kenwandee Robinson, shot dead in May 2009.
