We can’t call it a murder as yet – cops say after naked man found in house, dies
CLARENDON, Jamaica— Police in Clarendon have launched an investigation into the death of a man who was found unconscious in his house on Wednesday but died a day later in hospital.
The man, identified as 64-year-old Ricardo Brown, was found in a community known as Turners in Four Paths by the police.
It is reported that about 6:30 pm on Wednesday, Brown was found naked with a wound and lying in a pool of blood. He was assisted to the May Pen Hospital and admitted in serious condition.
Brown, however, died on Thursday.
A blue Toyota Fielder motor car belonging to Brown has gone missing from the premises, the police have reported.
But Senior Superintendent Glenford Miller, the commanding officer for the Clarendon Division, said the death cannot yet be determined as a murder.
“For now, we are treating it as an undetermined death,” SSP Miller told OBSERVER ONLINE, adding that a post-mortem and other investigations will have to be done.
“We don’t want to call something a crime, and it is not a crime,” the SSP said.
