A shooting incident was reported early this morning (June 23) in Akmeemana, Galle.
Two persons on a motorcycle have opened fire at a residence on Dissanayake Mawatha in the Wewegodawatte area around 5.00am.
The shooting had been carried out using a 9mm pistol, and the suspects reportedly fled the scene afterward.
According to reports, no injuries have been reported.
The owner of the house is employed as an executive at a factory in the Midigama area and was dismissed from his job a few days ago due to an issue with another employee. The police also stated that the employee in question had previously threatened him over the phone.
Accordingly, the police suspect that this individual may have carried out the shooting.
Further investigations are underway.
