Three people have died while eight others have been injured following a shooting in St Michael this morning.

Police say the shooting happened just before 2 a.m. at Majestic Bar on Nelson Street.

Three people died at the scene while six others sustained gunshot wounds and are receiving treatment at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital (QEH).

Police say two other males with injuries are being treated at the scene.

According to police, a number of people were patronizing the bar when three masked men armed with firearms entered and fired a number of shots.

Police Commissioner Richard Boyce has extended condolences to the families of those who lost their lives and wished the injured a full and speedy recovery.

He said police are determined to have the culprits brought to justice for this heinous attack on people who were violently ambushed while enjoying a night out.

The Barbados Police Service said the investigations are in the early stages and they are asking for the assistance of any member of the public who may have any information that may help to arrest those responsible for the shooting.
