PM announces $2 million reward for information on killers of 14-y-o Terona Thomas

 

Prime Minister Dr. Andrew Holness has announced a reward of $2 million for information leading to the capture of the two men involved in the fatal shooting of 14-year-old Terona Thomas in Olympic Gardens last month. 

 

Terona, otherwise called 'Tee Tee', a student of Pembroke Hall High, was shot along the Hill Avenue area of Olympic Way on April 17. 

 

Two other people were wounded in the attack. 

 

Dr. Holness, who is the Member of Parliament for the area, said those responsible must be caught.

 

"Moments before, she asked her mother for some money, if she could go to this shop to buy [crab].... And the mother went into our pocket, gave her daughter [the money with] no expectation that some low life beast would come and claim the life of her  daughter over some foolishness over who thief who fa gun. And we must have pity and sympathy on those people? We must come out and protest on their behalf? It is time that Jamaica stands up and be definitive. We must stand up and protest for the victims," he declared as he announced the reward for information leading to the capture of her killers.
