A curfew has been imposed in sections of the St. Catherine North police division.
The curfew began at 6 o'clock Monday evening and will remain in effect until 6:00 p.m., Wednesday.
The boundaries incorporate sections of Valdez Road, Lawrence Drive and Old Harbour Road.
The curfew was announced hours after the fatal shooting of a woman and the wounding of two members of her family in Homestead in the parish.
The woman has been identified as 52 year-old dressmaker Andrea Young.
Senior Superintendent of Police Stephanie Lindsay, head of the Jamaica Constabulary Force's Corporate Communications Unit, told Radio Jamaica News that the incident was linked to gang conflict.
Three persons of interest, who go by the aliases Blacks, Quan and Tiny Boy, have been asked to report to the Spanish Town Police Station for questioning.
