A father and daughter were murdered Tuesday night during a shooting incident in the Good Hope community of Negril, Westmoreland.
The deceased are 18-year-old Brianna Kerr and 49-year-old Vanley Kerr, a security guard.
According to reports, both were killed at a shop operated by Brianna’s mother.
A senior police officer told OBSERVER ONLINE that shortly after 8:30 pm two men entered the shop, ordered cigarettes and asked for a particular name. The men then opened fire hitting Brianna and Vanley. The daughter died on location while the father died in hospital while undergoing treatment, the police said.
The police are yet to determine a motive for the killings.

This is an half ass explanation of events! Dem order the cigarette, ask for a particular name and just shot the girl and her father so?! Makes zero rass sense!
Mother, please explain beause this is soooo off.
The killer(s) who did that shouldn’t live to make it to a court room. Things are at a stage now where savages who commit such brutal acts must be cut down right away. No arrest, no meeting with lawyer, no 30 years sentence. Just a ride to Madden’s funeral home. This is not a case of self-defense, it’s cold blooded murder of a father and his daughter. The murder game way outta control. When did shooting unarmed persons become the norm? According to reports, the killer went to the location looking for the man’s other daughter but she wasn’t there. They opened fire on the girl and her dad before fleeing. When did it become acceptable to kill innocent people because you can’t find your target? Some may disagree with the following, but more citizens need to own guns in order to protect themselves, their families, their businesses and their communities. Criminals are most likely to prey on people they know can not protect themselves.
The real question is what did the man other daughter do so for them to be looking for her to kill her? What really she go mix up in a ? This is really serious…
People need to start putting up cameras in their homes ,in their cars and business’s .
@Anon 8:36am, weh di camera ah guh dhu, Miss/Sir????? Camera can stop bullet and the intent of cold blooded murderers????? Miss/Sir, yuh cyaahn carry knife guh ah gun fight, much more camera!!!!! Come wid ah stronger argument!
Anybody who thinks JA is paradise needs medication. I don’t give a shit about what is happening in other countries, but when I know a place that used to be so peaceful a mere 30 yrs ago, where you could walk on the streets at any hour night or day without no fear and now to see babies getting riddled with bullets like they are handing out candy. Where you don’t have to be in any conflict with anyone or do anything to anybody to lose your life. Folks used to jump up seh ppl nuh just dead suh a JA until the elderly, babies and young school girls started getting killed regularly, then that theory suddenly went out the window. Let everyone find a place of peace while it can still be found.
My condolences to the family of the deceased.
