Charlestown man killed in drive-by shooting

A  Charlestown man met a violent end last night when he was gunned down in a drive-by shooting not far from his residence.
According to sources, 31-year old Mark Caesar, who resides at 81 St. Stephen Street, Charlestown, was gunned down around 19:00hrs in his vehicle at Broad and Russell Streets, Charlestown.
He reportedly died from multiple gunshot wounds, as many as twenty, one source said.
Known as “Lil Mark,” Caesar was shot in December, 2009, at Roopa’s Bar, the same time 28-year-old Hewley Nicholas Barker, of Norton Street, Lodge, was shot and killed.
Caesar is said to have been a close associate of the late Steve Jupiter who  was among five people gunned down in Cummings Lodge several weeks ago.
Police said the five were killed over the disappearance of a large quantity of cocaine.
