I've had mails of enquiry about the shooting last night at Apart-Hotel on Dr. Rosen, Sosua (opposite Rocky's). Five or so shots rang out at 7.45 pm & people have asked what it was all about. I have two independent eye witness accounts in writing, both trustworthy, but there is nothing in the papers yet.
This was NOT a robbery nor drug related to the best of my knowledge. It would appear that a German resident who is a partner in a local bar got caught by his girlfriend in flagrante delicto with another lady friend. Girlfriend followed the German to Apart-Hotel & shot him 6 times in the leg. No-one was killed but the German lay screaming in pain until two of his friends came to drive him away. Police did not appear until some time after the event.
Hope that answers the questions and maybe provides a bit of a lesson as to the extreme measures some of the working girl population employ. The Germans are all residents & should know this stuff. Tourists be suitably advised. The shooter has a history & has shot people before. Having a bang takes on a whole new meaning it would appear. But, I repeat, it was NOT a robbery.
