The police say a 20-year-old man was murdered execution-style in Barrett Town, St James last night.
The deceased is Dainton Samuels also known as Prince of Lilliput in the parish.
About 10:30 pm, residents of the community found Samuel’s body and summoned the police. Upon arrival of the lawmen, he was seen on the ground with his hands tied behind him. The scene was processed and his body sent to the morgue.
This latest murder comes on the heels of a pledge by Superintendent of Police (SSP) Steve McGregor to turn crime around in the parish.
