Residents in Ashdeane Village, Black Rock, St Michael, say they never expected one of their own to be gunned down, far less during the Christmas holidays.

But on Sunday night, Adrian Noel Gibson, also known as “Biscuit”, was attacked just outside the home he shared with his girlfriend and 11-year-old son. His killing has brought the number for the year to 40.

Police reported he was shot about 9:15 p.m. but was pronounced dead after being taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital by ambulance.

Kerry-Ann Bridgeman, who lives in the area, described the mechanic as a father figure, adding she was hurting following Gibson’s death.
