Aries Archibald, a 22-year-old man, met a tragic end when his body was discovered in a neighbouring home after firefighters responded to a house fire in Siparia village on Saturday night. The wooden home at Sennon Village Extension was engulfed in flames, prompting first responders to rush to the scene upon hearing loud explosions. Fortunately, they were able to control the blaze.
Shortly thereafter, the police made a grim discovery – Archibald’s lifeless body hanging out of a wardrobe in a nearby one-storey house. He had been shot in the head, neck, and chest. The young man was already facing charges related to firearms and drugs, having been out on bail at the time of his death.
At the scene, villagers were tight-lipped about the incident. Although one anonymous source revealed that Archibald had been socializing with friends before the tragedy struck, details remained scarce. The police suspect that the killing may have been a case of revenge or linked to illicit drugs.
Crime scene investigators painstakingly collected evidence, including spent shells and projectiles found at the scene. The tragic death of Aries Archibald serves as a stark reminder of the dangers posed by the intertwining worlds of crime and violence.
