Father killed in Guaynabo; bullet strikes his four-year-old daughter

According to primerahora.com, gunmen murdered a man on Saturday evening at the intersection of Las Palmas Avenue in the Amelia neighbourhood of Guaynabo, while his four-year-old daughter was struck by a bullet in a buttock.

The 9-1-1 Emergency System received the report at 10:28 p.m. after gunshots were heard in the area. Upon arriving at the scene, officers found the bullet-riddled corpse of Luis Yoniel Pérez Hernández, 34 years old and a resident of Cataño. Next to the body was a white 2020 Mercedes Benz with multiple bullet impacts.

Pérez Hernández had been charged in August with domestic violence and possession of a firearm without a licence. The disposition of that case in court is unknown.

A 27-year-old man was also shot in the incident; his condition is critical. The child and the wounded adult were transported to the Medical Centre of Puerto Rico in Río Piedras in private vehicles. Their condition was not reported at the time the report was filed.

Agent Carlos Lafontaine, of the Homicide Division of the Criminal Investigation Corps (CIC) of Bayamón, is leading the investigation along with prosecutor Carlos Rodríguez.
