A 47-year-old All Saints resident is recovering after he was allegedly shot and robbed during a home invasion early Wednesday, police said.
Reports indicate that around 1 a.m., the man was awakened by a noise in his living room and confronted by two masked gunmen who had allegedly forced their way into his bedroom and demanded money.
A struggle reportedly followed when the victim refused. During the altercation, one of the suspects allegedly shot him in the right side of the abdomen.
The assailants, described as men of average build armed with black firearms, fled in an unknown vehicle heading east. They reportedly escaped with a black wallet containing an undisclosed amount of cash and personal documents.
Police said investigations are ongoing.

Crime? What crime? They’re playing cops & robbers with modified water pistols. Please don’t shoot I’m allergic to water🙃
Things are not that bad in Antigua they can look work and there is work available they are just lazy and though more risky they find it’s faster and easier to rob people than doing 8 hours work…
@this world is a mess, you just described the Cabinet and Parliament of A&B.
Stop making excuses for the fuckery. Working for a paycheck which keeps you in poverty living hand to mouth is not attractive when the Bosses and Dons of Antigua’s Underworld who control them are living lavishly off these thugs and their escapades.
So you go to work legally for 8 hours then you go to work illegally for the Dons and
Godfathers held in high esteem and
sell and move their illegal goods as a side hustles to make ends meet.
If the person is recovering how it still allegedly?
To this world is a messed up place one rhetorical question in two parts, are fraud, embezzlement, scamming crimes and how much of these types of criminal behaviors are exhibited by rich working people to poor wanna be rich people in Antigua & Barbuda?
One big advantage the US has over other countries is firearm ownership.
A similar situation here will result in the intruders being rapidly neutralized.
Assaulting a homeowner in his home will end very badly for the intruder here.
I love the comment about the dons and boss… the average person is still living in denial about the scam that takes place in this country.. when the nurses come to this country they provide a place for them to stay, everything is fraud move, the Minister’s get a kick back from the underhand deals .. so much greed people living like they are not going to die with absolutely no fear about what could be after This life …
Question, how can a gun be a mortified water gun when the person is nursing a gunshot wound ?
This world is real crazy right now! The heart of men are desperately wicked. ! You’re not safe in your home . This is sad 😥
The government should get solar powered streetlight with camera combination out of china to replace all existing streetlights system and help the police and government solve crimes.
@Me done say 🔫 bow wow, U dead? I see that one flew over your hairdo. It’s facetious and as a lesson learned today, when you use a water pistol as a tool in water boarding a tactic used on captured soldiers, they’ll spill even the makers who’re reassembling these ghost guns and distributing them to the street thugs.
Just so you know, there are water guns called bazookas which can shoot a stream of water like a power washer with the correct pressure.
You should try standing in front of a water pressure wand and nozzle when it’s pushing out a certain amount of psi. It can blind you, and rip your skin to shreds.
Me dun chat!
