Minutes after 12am Monday, a party was in session at a sports bar in the Old Folly community of Discovery Bay, St. Ann. Reports from the St. Ann’s Bay Police are that unknown assailants started shooting at a group at the party.

When the shooting subsided, five people were seen suffering from gunshot wounds.
