A Jamaican was one of three men killed in a bloody attack in Queens during the early hours of Saturday morning.

He has been identified as 27-year-old Jason Wood, who worked as a salesman in Brooklyn.

Police sources told the Observer that Wood and three friends had travelled from a party in Brooklyn to drop off a fourth friend in Queens.

The three were attacked and killed as they sat in a Jeep shortly after dropping off the friend.

Investigators said it is believed the men were trailed from a club in Brooklyn where they attended a party, and where a dispute over a woman reportedly took place.

Wood leaves a four-year-old son in Jamaica.
