Police are renewing their appeal for information in connection with the 2016 murder of Jason Mello.

Mr Mello was fatally shot on August 19 on Bandroom Lane in Pembroke.

A spokeswoman for the Bermuda Police Service said: “The gunman is believed to have entered Bandroom Lane wearing a full face visor helmet and heavy dark coloured winter clothing that would have been unusual on a hot August evening.

“The gunman is believed to have parked the cycle higher up on Bandroom Lane and walked down to where he shot Mr Mello several times.

“The gunman then returned to his parked motorcycle and rode back out through St Monica’s Road area.“

Police are appealing to witnesses or anyone with information “no matter how insignificant it may seem” to contact Detective Sergeant Dean Martin at the Serious Crime Unit on 295-0011 or to call Crime Stoppers on 800-8477, or an officer directly.
