Police in Paralimni are investigating a shooting at a house. This happened early Tuesday morning. The Famagusta Police Department went to the scene. The house is linked to someone known by a local businessman. This businessman has had trouble before.
Police heard about the shooting around 5:30 pm on Tuesday. This was much later than when it happened. Officers from the Famagusta Criminal Investigation Department arrived quickly. They secured the area to protect any evidence. The investigation is ongoing. More questions will happen Wednesday morning.
Andreas Konstantinou from the police spoke about the event. He said, "Unknown people shot at a house." He also said, "The police were told late, even though the shooting was earlier." This delay makes the start of the investigation harder.
The reason for the shooting is not clear yet. It might be linked to problems for a well-known businessman. He has been targeted before. A grenade was found at his business. There was also a bomb threat. This caused people to leave his place. These repeated attacks are worrying for safety.
Police will try to find who did this and why. They will look at evidence from the scene. They will also check the businessman's recent actions. They want to know if he had arguments. The shooting at an associate's house seems like a message. People want to know who is behind these actions.
