ST ANDREW, Jamaica – The funeral service for former Scare Dem Crew member Boom Dandimite is now underway at the Pennwood Seventh Day Adventist Church in Waterhouse in St Andrew.

The artiste’s body will be interred at Meadowrest Memorial Gardens.

Boom Dandimite died as a result of complications resulting from serious injuries he had sustained in a tragic car accident in late April.

The accident occurred on Half-Way Tree Road in St Andrew near a popular bakery. Another rising deejay, Wilful Skilful, was also injured in the accident. Dandimite was hospitalised while Wilful Skilful was discharged and sent home.

Days later, Boom Dandimite, whose real name is Donovan Stewart, later recovered and was discharged from the Kingston Public Hospital.

However, he died on May 21 after he had travelled to the United States to access further treatment for his injuries.
