Boyfriend allegedly prime suspect in shooting of Linden woman

Teon Allen, also called Spoil Child, who was injured in a shooting incident which has left his girlfriend dead, remains under guards at the Linden Hospital Complex and is being treated at the main suspect.

Twenty-seven-year-old Collissa Hunte died from a single gunshot to the chest on Thursday last at Amelia’s Ward, Linden. During the shooting incident, Allen was reportedly shot to the upper shoulder and back.
The wound is reportedly in the same area where he was previously shot during an encounter with the Police some time back.
It was reported that Allen and the now-dead woman came under fire while they were alone at the Amelia’s Ward house, which is situated in a “desolate” section of the area.
After the shooting, Police were summoned to the scene where they found the woman dead and her boyfriend, an ex-cop, injured. The woman was discovered slumped over on the kitchen floor bleeding from her nose and mouth.
However, ranks who visited the scene recovered four live rounds of ammunition and a few spent shells.

Divisional Commander Hugh Winter had noted that it appeared as though several shots were fired at the location but given the remoteness of the area, there were no eyewitnesses. Investigators believe that the shots were fired from inside the house.
Allen is suspected to be involved in an alleged gang rivalry which has reportedly led to numerous acts of violence being meted out against him in the past.
The dead woman’s mother, Yolanda Johnson, had related that she was never in favour of the couple’s relationship since she knew her daughter was putting her life in danger.
“I used to beg her to let go but she never listened”, the clearly traumatised woman had related. Nevertheless, the Police are continuing their investigation into the shooting incident.
