ST. JOHNS, ANTIGUA (AFP) — Antigua hotels and businesses have offered a reward for information leading to the arrest of those responsible for shooting a British couple on their honeymoon, killing the woman, police said Wednesday.

Medical doctor Catherine Mullany, 31, was shot and killed while husband, Benjamin, also 31, was in a coma with bullet wounds to the head and neck.

Assailants shot the couple at their cottage on Sunday in an incident police are treating as a robbery "gone bad."

The parents of Benjamin plan to fly him to Wales for medical treatment, police said Wednesday.
