Cops identify persons of interest in Old Harbour murder
ST CATHERINE, Jamaica — Police have identified a few persons of interest in connection with Sunday’s killing of a resident at the Bannister Housing Scheme in Old Harbour, St Catherine.
Kwesi Kamala McGregor, a 23-year-old auto repairman, was shot dead by gunmen as he stood at a premises in the scheme.
The police say investigations into the incident are ongoing as they make every effort to pick up these persons of interest.
It is reported that about 6:00 pm, McGregor was standing along the main road in the community, when a grey hatchback Subaru motorcar drove past.
The car reportedly turned and returned to where McGregor was standing and stopped at his feet. Two men alighted from the Subaru and opened gunfire, hitting him all over his body and he fell to the ground.
The men then drove away making their escape. The police were summoned, and McGregor was rushed to the Spanish Town Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
