Taylor Grier

Victim: Taylor Grier, 30.

Date and location of murder: July 27, 2018, Court Street, Hamilton.

Circumstances: Court Street was bustling at about 10pm on a Friday when two men on a motorcycle, dressed in dark clothing and full-face visor helmets, drove from Tills Hill to the junction with Elliott Street where a group of men had gathered.

The gunman dismounted and opened fire, hitting two men as the crowd scattered.

The vehicle fled north, turning east on Angle Street.

Mr Grier, father of a young daughter and a founding member of the dance group Bermuda Squad, was pronounced dead at the hospital.

He was known for using dance to spread an antiviolence message, and had become a mentor to other young men.

Police confirmed the attack had stemmed from the island’s gang activity, but emphasised there was nothing to indicate that Mr Grier had been involved.
