The Manchester police also believe they are involved in several recent gun attacks in the parish.

Head of the division, Deputy Superintendent Carey Duncan said the police are following strong leads in the investigation of Friday’s gun attack.
He noted that persons from other parishes may also have been involved in the shooting.
