IN JAMAICA: JDF private among five killed in bloody 24 hours Monday, June 07, 2021

 A Jamaica Defence Force (JDF) private was among five people murdered across the island Saturday night into Sunday morning.

Police sources yesterday told the Jamaica Observer that a top level investigation is now underway into the fatal shooting of the soldier and another man in Spring Piece district, St Ann, on Saturday.


The JDF member has been identified as 25-year-old Leighton Sinclair, while the other victim was identified as 38-year-old Devoy Webb, a mechanic. Both men are of Spring Piece district addresses.

The Ocho Rios police report that about 11:20 pm residents heard explosions and summoned them.

The cops later found both men with gunshot wounds. They were taken to hospital where they were pronounced dead. Up to press time last night, the investigators had not established a motive for the killings.

In Hanover, 29-year-old Aaron Melbourne, better known as Don, and 18-year-old Baglio Anthony Salmon of Hudson Crescent, Norwood, St James, were fatally shot, and three other men were left nursing gunshot wounds after they were attacked in Mount Pleasant.

The police report that Melbourne, Salmon, and two other men were at the house of a friend when they were pounced upon by four men armed with guns who opened fire at them. more
