Bridget James – 25 Year Old K*lled After Her Popular Dancehall BF Was Ambushed On Her Bday

The Sunday Express spoke to Patrick James via cellphone yesterday from his Maracas Valley, St Joseph, home. He said he had no idea his daughter, who was murdered on Friday, was dating Arthur.

Around 2.15 p.m. on Friday, artiste Kalonji Arthur and Bridget, 25, who recently left her job at the accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers, had just gotten into his Toyota Altis and were about to leave the BRIX Hotel, Autograph Collection, off Coblentz Avenue, Cascade, when a group of men armed with assault rifles ambushed them and opened fire.

Arthur was struck in both legs, and James was shot several times about the upper body. The killers then fled in a waiting vehicle. Both injured were taken to the Port of Spain General Hospital, where James was pronounced dead on arrival. Arthur remained in stable condition.
