BBN Staff:Accused murderer, Orlando Salazar, 27, has been acquitted of all charges and is now a free man.

He was accused of the 2017 murder of Windel Gibson Jr.

Gibson and Karron Santos were in the Conch Shell Bay fish market when two men on a motorcycle rode up to them and opened fire.

Gibson died on the spot while Santos suffered minor injuries.

Salazar was subsequently charged with ‘murder’, ‘attempted murder’ and ‘maim’.
