The deceased have been identified as 22-year-old Cordel August, a wash bay attendant from Strathspey, and 35-year-old Eon Headley, a self-employed resident of Vigilance South.
According to preliminary police investigations, the two men were among a group of individuals gathered at a shop in the community around 10:00 p.m. when two men dressed in black arrived on a motorcycle.

Police reports indicate that examinations of the bodies revealed suspected gunshot wounds. The bodies have since been taken to Memorial Gardens Funeral Home, where they are awaiting post-mortem examinations.
No arrests have been made at this time, and investigations into the double murder are ongoing. Authorities are appealing to anyone with information related to the incident to come forward and assist in the investigation.
