Two people were shot and killed at a business place in Christiana, Manchester, on Saturday night, while a third individual is nursing gunshot wounds at hospital.  

The deceased are 35-year-old businesswoman Tanesha Burton, of Craig Head, Manchester, and 74-year-old Wilford Mollison, also of Craig Head.

About 11:00 p.m., explosions were reportedly heard at a bar operated by Burton along the Big Woods main road.

The police were summoned and, upon their arrival, the bodies of Burton and Mollison were observed on the floor inside the bar.

The bodies reportedly had what appeared to be gunshot wounds.

A man who was shot and injured in the incident was assisted to hospital where he was admitted.
