Police appeal for dash cam footage following shooting
Police are appealing to the public for dash cam footage after a man was shot and killed in the carpark at the Usain Bolt Sports Complex, Lazaretto, St Michael, this morning.
Police Public Affairs and Communications Officer, Inspector Ryan Brathwaite, made the appeal for drivers who were travelling along Black Rock Main Road.
“Even if your car is fitted with a dash cam, that could be of some assistance,” Brathwaite said at the scene. “Remember that this incident occurred anywhere around 11 o’clock so if you were on that roadway between 10:50 a.m. and let’s say 11:15 a.m., your assistance will be greatly appreciated.”
Police Operations Control received the call from a female at 11:16 stating that a man was shot in a vehicle at the Usain Bolt Sports Complex. Lawmen arrived to find the body in the car. A medical doctor visited the scene, examined the body and pronounced death.
Brathwaite said preliminary investigations showed the deceased drove into the area earlier that morning and was approached by a male wearing a black T-shirt and a black three-quarter pants. Gunshots were heard and that male was seen running away from the area.
He is appealing to the public who may have seen this individual to contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-8477, Police Emergency at 211 or the Black Rock Police Station at 417-7500 or 417-7501. (PR/SAT)
