Members of the Manchester Police are searching for the suspects behind Friday morning's fatal shooting of a bus driver at Holmwood Technical High School in Manchester.
 
Radio Jamaica News spoke with Deputy Superintendent Carey Duncan, head of the Manchester Police, who said the police are using all available resources and combing sections of Manchester for three suspects in connection with the killing. 
 
Rohan Gentles, who was the school's bus driver, was shot dead in view of students. 
 
It's reported that about 9 o'clock, Mr. Gentles was sitting inside the bus when a man walked up and shot him. 
 
He was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead.
 
Holmwood Technical High football coach, Erol Newman, told Radio Jamaica News that Mr. Gentles was waiting to transport students to a football match at the time of the shooting. 
 
Mr. Gentles worked with the institution for more than three years.
 
Classes were suspended following the attack.
