One man is in police custody in connection with last Thursday’s fatal shooting of 10 year old Christian Liverpool.

The child was shot in the head at his home at Bellamy Street, Cocorite Road, Arima and later died at hospital.

In a statement on Monday, the TTPS confirmed one person has been arrested in connection with the incident, however charges are yet to be laid.

It is still unclear whether the child was shot while playing with the gun or whether someone else was involved in the incident.
