Police name person of interest in connection with killing of 4 in St James

ST JAMES, Jamaica – The St James police have named a person of interest in Thursday’s pre-dawn gun attack, which left four persons dead, including an eight year old girl, in the normally quiet Richmond Hill, Bickersteth community in the parish.

The cops are asking Kevin Hodge, otherwise called Tafari to report to the nearest police station. He is said to be about 29 years old and hails from a Jenkins Corner, Barrett Town address in the parish .

Hodge is being sought for questioning in connection with the deaths of Shaya Prince, 8, her mother, 28-year-old Loy Loraine Watson, also called Latti; Junior Peter Scott, 26, of a Waterhouse address and 22-year-old  Kimali Walker of a Denham Town, west Kingston address.
