The St. Andrew South police are probing reports that a 16-year-old who was fatally shot on Seaward Drive in Olympic Gardens, St. Andrew, on Tuesday night, was killed in reprisal for the murder of reggae legend, "Tabby Diamond".
Janoi Ellis, a resident of Seaward Drive, Kingston 20, was killed about 10 o'clock.
Investigators recovered 17 spent casings and 11 bullet fragments at the scene.
Senior Superintendent Kirk Ricketts, head of the St. Andrew South Police, told Radio Jamaica News that investigators are probing allegations that the deceased was associated with men behind the murder of Tabby Diamond.
He said the killing is part of the ongoing conflict between men from Wint Road and McKinley Crescent in the division.
Tabby Diamond, 67, whose given name was Donald Shaw, and another individual identified as Owen Beckford, were fatally shot on March 31 when a gunman opened fire on a group outside a shop on McKinley Crescent.
