A 28-year-old-man of West Bay was arrested on Thursday 3 August in relation to a murder incident that took place off West Bay Road, George Town on 1 October, 2016. That West Bay man was arrested on suspicion of accessory after the fact of murder, as he is believed to have mislead the police throughout the course of the investigation, where then 24-year-old Justin Manderson was shot at the front of a shopping plaza located on West Bay Road. He was transported to the George Town Hospital where he later succumbed to his injuries.

The West Bay man has since been bailed pending further investigations into the incident. This is matter has been open and active for the past 7 years and was featured in a cold case series on the Cayman Compass back in June 2021 (click link here).
