Information is sketchy at this time, but OBSERVER ONLINE has learnt that the taxi oper­a­tor was killed by gun­men who were trav­el­ling in his car, after he was sig­nalled to stop by police officers.

After the dri­ver brought the motor vehi­cle to a halt, alleged eye­wit­ness­es say the gun­men opened fire on the taxi dri­ver and then turned their weapons on the cops, injur­ing a woman constable.

She has since been tak­en to hos­pi­tal and is report­ed­ly in seri­ous condition.

The gun­men escaped on foot.

It is not clear if the oth­er pas­sen­gers in the motor vehi­cle were injured.

  1. in a few secondsHold on, this is wait­ing to be approved by Jamaica Observer.

    I have said already and I am going to say it again! If I was a man with a crim­i­nal business/​enterprise Jamaica would be my ide­al loca­tion for my headquarters.

    As an inter­na­tion­al war­rior of the United States mil­i­tary, my heart goes out to the police offi­cers in Jamaica. Because it is Jamaican elit­ists, politi­cians, the crim­i­nals, and Indecom against you! My advice to you guys try to leave the force and migrate to anoth­er country.

    Wishing that the police woman a speedy recovery!

    Criminals are brazen, embold­ened, and fear­less in Jamaica.

    • Well said , it is abun­dant­ly clear to peo­ple who don’t have their heads up their rear ends that every effort is being made by the Administration in Kingston to grow crime on the Island.
