Mo Bay double murder theorized to be reprisal attack

Two men were shot dead Barrett Hall, Lilliput in St. James Saturday morning.

The police believe Kenroy Powell, 26, and Alex Forbes, otherwise called ‘Sizzla', both of Mandeville, Manchester addresses were killed by members of the Montego Bay Based Stone Crusher Gang as an act of reprisal.   

The Constabulary Communication Network reports that Barrett Hall residents called the police at about 7am to report hearing explosions in their community.

The police team that responded found the men's bullet-riddled bodies, one lying in a yard and the other on a verandah.

It is believed that Mr. Powell and Mr. Forbes was killed in retaliation for the shooting of Gleason Calvert, brother of Eldon Calvert, reputed leader of the Stone Crusher Gang, and the murder of Andrew Blair which occurred at Barrett Hall on January 18.

Superintendent in charge of the St. James Division, Maurice Robinson, is appealing to anyone with information to contact the Montego Bay Police at 953-6191 or 684-9090 or the nearest police.
