Reports are that gunmen alighted from a vehicle at the corner of Mountain View Ave and Jarrett Lane and sprayed several gunshots up Jarrett Lane where residents were gathered outside of a popular local spot.
At the end of the attack, it is suspected that five persons were shot, three killed and others who were injured taken to hospital for medical treatment.
Long standing feud, resulting in attacks and counter-attacks have been taking place over the past 15 to 25 years. A number of neighbouring communities such as Oliver Road, Rockfort, Jarrett Lane, Jacques Road, Mountain View Ave and others in East Kingston have been caught up in the vollies.
With school children living in these communities, it must be jarring and frightening to experience these maddening situations. We hope that people will come to realize that no one wins when we kill our brothers and sisters. An elderly person or a child could have been walking on the street at the time of the attack, and then what?
We need peace and love, proper education and tools to enhance and uplift families to produce major progress and positive changes, NOT GUNS. MORE TO COME...DEVELOPING STORY
