*An NAACP leader from Arlington, Virginia was killed in an ambush while vacationing with his girlfriend in Turks and Caicos.
Kent Carter was gunned down over the weekend while traveling back from an excursion on Sunday, The Daily Beast reports.
Carter and the group he was traveling with were reportedly ambushed and their vehicle was fired upon “indiscriminately” by members of a gang who were armed with automatic weapons.
“As a result of this attack, two persons were murdered,” police commissioner Trevor Botting said at a press briefing, “one from the local business and another being a tourist from the United States.”
Responding officers reportedly engaged in a shootout with the gang and one of the gunmen was killed in the attack.
