Man gunned down after being granted bail at Portland police station

The police in Portland are investigating the death of a man who was shot and killed after leaving a police station, where he was granted bail.

It is reported that on Monday evening the deceased was pounced upon after exiting the Buff Bay Police Station.

Several loud explosions were heard in the direction of the Buff Bay Primary School

and cops reportedly ran from the nearby station, some meters away, in the direction of the noise.

Upon their arrival, the man was seen suffering from what appeared to be gunshot wounds to head.

He was later pronounced dead by a doctor.

Six people have been murdered in the Portland Police Division since the start of the year.
