NAACP Arlington
An NAACP leader from Arlington, Virginia, has been identified as the American who was gunned down over the weekend while he vacationed in Turks and Caicos, local authorities said.
Kent Carter was traveling back from an excursion inside a tourist shuttle when the vehicle was ambushed by gang members who fired inside the vehicle “indiscriminately,” police said. Carter was killed in the gunfire on Sunday evening, along with a tour guide and one of the assailants.
“I believe the original attack was targeted and carried out by armed gang members who act without conscience, who have no regard for life,” the police commissioner for the archipelago, Trevor Botting, said on Tuesday.
