Funeral Held for Scottish Man Shot Dead in Caribbean
The funeral for Danny Vettrino, a Scottish man who was killed on the Caribbean island of St Vincent and the Grenadines, took place recently. Vettrino, originally from Dysart, was shot multiple times in a car park in June and was pronounced dead at the scene.
Danny relocated to the Grenadines in 2024, where he worked as a Technical Service Manager at the Canouan Estate Resort and Villas. He was laid to rest in his hometown on August 21.
In a statement, Ian Johnston Funeral Directors described the service at Kirkcaldy Crematorium as “beautiful and heartfelt”. They highlighted that family and friends gathered to welcome Vettrino back to Dysart one last time before his funeral. Many attendees travelled from various parts of the world to pay their respects.
The funeral service was marked by tears and laughter as attendees shared stories and memories of Vettrino. The statement concluded with a sentiment of remembrance, saying, “Rest in peace now, Danny. Your work on this earth is done.”
In the wake of Danny’s murder, police in the Caribbean confirmed they had made several arrests, including two of his co-workers, as part of the ongoing investigation. However, no charges have been brought forth as of yet. Local media reports suggest that his death has triggered a broader investigation into the disappearance of a private plane near Canouan in July, with potential links to individuals from Colombia, where Vettrino had lived prior to his move to the Caribbean.
