If you know someone who is keeping a gun or carrying one, report it to the police. That is the appeal from Deputy Commissioner of Police Erwin Boyce, as officers were called to investigate yet another shooting on Wednesday.

The morning quiet of Garden Land, Country Road, St Michael, was shattered by four gunshots. Police said Renico Murray, a resident, was shot around 10:30 a.m. and taken to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital by private vehicle.

“We are always asking people for any information that can lead to offenders or persons who commit crime. That public appeal is not limited to those recent events. It is a very general appeal where if you know something, say something,” Boyce told THE NATION.

“If you know somebody who is holding a firearm, who is keeping a firearm, who is carrying a firearm, you can identify a police officer and share the information with them,” he said. (SAT/DB)
