Halifax Regional Police continue to investigate the murder of a 27-year-old man who was shot to death outside a bar three years ago.
Police responded to Winston’s Bar on Lacewood Drive shortly after 2 a.m. on June 1, 2012.
Upon arrival, officers found a man on the sidewalk. John Fulton Newcombe was pronounced dead at the scene.
An autopsy confirmed he died from a gunshot wound.
Police say Newcombe had just left the bar when he was shot in the parking lot. They believe the shooter fled through a walkway towards Willett Street where he was picked up by a vehicle.
Investigators believe Newcombe was the intended target and say the shooting wasn’t a random incident.
Police are asking anyone with information to contact them.
