A 27-year-old Barbadian man is set to face judicial proceedings this Saturday morning on serious criminal allegations including homicide and firearms violations. Khalil Lavaar Hurley, currently documented as without permanent residence, was formally charged in connection with two distinct January incidents that shocked local communities.
The most severe charges stem from the January 9th incident at Worthing Beach in Christ Church parish, where Hurley stands accused of fatally shooting Andre Parris alongside unlawful firearm possession during the altercation. Court documents indicate this beachfront confrontation resulted in the tragic death that has concerned local residents and authorities.
Additionally, Hurley faces separate charges from a subsequent incident on January 19th at Headley Land in Bank Hall, St. Michael. These allegations include willful property destruction targeting belongings of Samantha Chassang and further illegal firearm usage during the event, suggesting a pattern of armed violence.
The District ‘A’ Criminal Court will convene to hear the prosecution’s case against Hurley, who remains in custody awaiting trial. Legal experts note the gravity of simultaneous murder and firearms charges within Barbados’ judicial system, particularly given the two-week span between alleged offenses.
Local law enforcement officials have emphasized their continued investigation into both incidents while encouraging community members with additional information to come forward. The consecutive nature of these serious allegations has prompted discussions about public safety protocols in affected neighborhoods.
