Search On For Gunmen Who Attacked Police With Grenades, Injuring A Cop.

Élan Powell

Sleuths have launched a hunt for a man who yes­ter­day hurled two grenades at a police team, injur­ing a cop, when they turned up to arrest him at a house in Armadale, Alexandria, St Ann. Assistant Police Commissioner Ealan Powell said the cops had gone to the house to arrest Sadan Mullings, also called ‘Saddam’, and his crony, Nickoy Treleven, who were both report­ed­ly want­ed for a string of mur­ders and shoot­ings in the west­ern parishes.

But just as police offi­cers sur­round­ed the house, call­ing to the men inside, the fugi­tives report­ed­ly threw two grenades from the build­ing and exit­ed with guns blaz­ing at the offi­cers. One of the grenades report­ed­ly failed to det­o­nate, while a police­man was injured by the oth­er, which jolt­ed the Alexandria com­mu­ni­ty from its sleep short­ly after mid­night. Treleven was found some dis­tance from the build­ing suf­fer­ing from gun­shot wounds. He lat­er died, said Powell.

ARMED AND DANGEROUS

“We are appeal­ing to Saddam to turn him­self in to the police by 6 p.m. tomor­row (today). And I want the pub­lic to know that he is a vicious and dan­ger­ous crim­i­nal who should be avoid­ed,” Powell told The Gleaner yesterday.

“He is want­ed for sev­er­al mur­ders and is known to turn his back on his friends and even fam­i­ly,” con­tin­ued Powell, not­ing that the use of the grenades goes to show the “lev­el of vicious­ness and how armed and dan­ger­ous he is”.

Powell described the police­man’s injuries as seri­ous, but not life threat­en­ing. He con­firmed that an ille­gal gun was tak­en from the dead man’s body. He could not imme­di­ate­ly name the type of gun.

He said the men are orig­i­nal­ly from the Green Island dis­trict in Hanover and that their stomp­ing grounds includ­ed St James, Westmoreland and sur­round­ing envi­rons.

Cop Killed In Bustamante Highway Accident.

A fatal acci­dent along the Bustamante Highway in Clarendon has claimed the life of a police­man attached to the Spanish Town police division.

The acci­dent hap­pened some­time after 6 o’clock yes­ter­day evening. It is report­ed that the cop, who was dri­ving a black infin­i­ty motor car, alleged­ly over­took a line of traf­fic and failed to keep left. He then col­lid­ed into a truck, then lost con­trol of the vehi­cle and slammed into the back of a truck which was parked along the road. A team from the Clarendon fire depart­ment had to be called in to cut him from the car. He was then rushed to the May Pen hos­pi­tal where he was pro­nounced dead. Up to late last night his iden­ti­ty was being with­held.

Hunt On For Two Gunmen Who Kidnapped Manchester Businessmen.

The Manchester police have inten­si­fied their inves­ti­ga­tions into the kid­nap­ping of two busi­ness­men in the parish on Thursday. Both men were found unharmed and released after the police foiled the ran­som drop. One sus­pect was arrest­ed in con­nec­tion with the crime, while the police con­tin­ue the hunt for the two gun­men believed to be respon­si­ble. Head of the Manchester police, Superintendent Wayne Cameron, report­ed that the two busi­ness­men were held up by gun­men at a house and tak­en into bush­es. According to Cameron, one of the gun­men made con­tact with the wife of one of the busi­ness­men demand­ing a ran­som of $1 mil­lion.
