Police have arrested two men in relation to Thursday morning’s murder of Cain Thomas, and a man and a woman in relation to the fatal shooting of Harry Elliott on Monday.
The body of 21-year-old Thomas, with gun shot wounds to the head, was found on an isolated part of beach off West Bay Road, near White Sands condos, around 1:30am this morning.
Police said they had arrested two of the “main suspects” in Thomas’s murder investigation this afternoon following a high-speed pursuit and interception by the Firearms Response Unit in North Side.
The two men – a 30-year-old of George Town and a 31-year-old of Bodden Town – are also suspects in a recent spate of armed robberies, police said.
The RCIPS seized a dark-coloured Audi car, which was described as “a vehicle of interest in the investigations”.

In a statement, the RCIPS said the man had previously been wanted in relation to a number of other offences, including domestic and traffic matters.
