Man charged for Trelawny double murder

TRELAWNY, Jamaica— A man has been charged in connection with the May 28 shooting at Red Dirt in Duncans, Trelawny that claimed the lives of two men and left two others nursing gunshot wounds.

READ: 4 shot in Trelawny, 2 fatally by gunmen dressed as soldiers

The deceased are 28-year-old Jason Traile, and Andre Dennis, 26, both unemployed residents of Red Dirt.

Stevie Dunn, otherwise called ‘Clearance’, a 34-year-old unemployed man of a Duncans address has been charged with two counts of murder and wounding with intent after he turned himself in to the police on Wednesday, July 6.

Reports from the Major Investigations Division are that about 7:53 pm, Traile, Dennis and the two other men were at a mechanic shop in Red Dirt when a Toyota Voxy motor car drove up and four men, including Dunn, who were dressed in army fatigue, alighted with handguns. The gunmen opened fire at the group, and all four men were transported to hospital where Traile and Dennis were pronounced dead. The other two injured men were admitted for treatment.

Dunn was charged on Thursday, July 7, after a question and answer session with detectives.
