THE sister of a mechanic who was murdered in a Mannings Hill Road bar early Saturday morning is asking his clients to collect their vehicles from his garage.

“I just want them to come collect dem cyar. I don’t even care about who owe him money or anything, I just want dem to come take dem,” said ‘Bibi’, sister of Winston Robinson, 45, affectionately called ‘Tata’.

“I don’t care about any money, any pay. Right now I wish that I could pay to bring back my brother,” bemoaned Bibi, who was beside herself with grief this past weekend.

Robinson and a woman, 20-year-old Tiffany Shirley, were attacked and shot to death at the bar located at the intersection of Mannings Hill Road and Whitehall Avenue in St Andrew. Robinson died on the spot, while Tiffany died while undergoing treatment at hospital.

They were shot when two gunmen allegedly went to the bar to avenge a couple who was involved in a fight with another couple there Friday night. Neither Robinson nor Shirley was involved in the fight. They were killed in what police suspect to be a case of mistaken identity.

Saturday, at least five vehicles were parked outside Robinson’s Burke Lane home in St Andrew, from where he operated his garage. ‘Bibi’ said her brother was still working on some of them on hours before his death.

Yesterday, one of Robinson’s close female friends and clients was still trying to come to terms with his death.

“I still can’t believe that they killed ‘Tata’. Mi weak. He was a hardworking, competent and honest mechanic. Up to last week he did some work on my car and was telling me to hurry up and come back so he could finish it. ‘Tata’ can never be replaced,” she told the Jamaica Observer.

In the meantime, in Glen Drive, where Tiffany lived — not far from Burke Lane — residents pledged to relentlessly search for her killers. They blamed a female resident of the community for starting the fight that led to the double murders.

Yesterday, they claimed that the police had the woman who allegedly started the fight in custody, but that could not be confirmed by Superintendent Maurice Robinson of the St Andrew North Police Division.

He said the police have made no inroads into the killings, which have left both Robinson’s and Shirley’s families in turmoil.

“There are no leads, no updates at this time,” revealed Robinson, adding that the Major Investigations Taskforce is also participating in the investigation.

The Jamaica Observer was unable to get comment from officers from the MIT yesterday.
