A man was shot and killed on John Chipman Close, formerly Lifebuoy Street, on Saturday afternoon.
Police Press Liaison Officer Chief Superintendent Leonard Ramsey was on the scene where he provided details of the incident. He said, “the deceased had just arrived at his residence when a lone occupant in a vehicle drove through John Chipman Close traveling east, when he exited the vehicle and discharged multiple shots in the deceased’s direction, fatally wounding him. The suspect then continued east, making good his escape.”
Ramsey confirmed that a high-powered weapon was used in the killing. He advised young men that possessing a firearm is not a sign of strength. He also appealed to those with information about the incident to contact the police.
