Cops seek POIs after firing, handling of guns in social media videos
KINGSTON, Jamaica — The Kingston Western police have named several persons of interest following the release of two videos of people handling and firing high-powered illegal firearms.
Head of the division, Senior Superintendent Michael Phipps, said the videos have drawn the interest of the police after lawmen observed them on social media.
“In one of these videos a group of men were seen discharging high-powered rifles, and in the other, a male and female were observed with what appears to be an illegal firearm, actually demonstrating how the weapon is to be handled,” SSP Phipps explained.
“In the instances of the discharging of the rifles, our investigators have identified the location to be an area known as Angola in the Arnett Gardens community. In the second instance, our investigators have determined this particular location to be somewhere in the Denham Town community, both within the Kingston Western division,” he said.
In the Arnett Gardens video, the police are seeking:
* Kareem Odian Martin otherwise called ‘Troubles’;
* Kemar Andre Campbell otherwise called ‘Doggy’
* Stuart Burton otherwise called ‘Bing’;
* Steve Agustus Martin otherwise called ‘Keegie’;
* Collin Nathaniel Rose otherwise called ‘Adum’;
* a man known as ‘Heartless’ and
* a man known as ‘Tevin’
In the other video in Denham Town, lawmen are seeking a woman called ‘Britney’, and a man called ‘Daniel’.
SSP Phipps added, “We have since identified the men and the women to be those persons so named as persons of interest, and as such, we are desirous of speaking with them. We are, therefore, asking that these persons report to the Denham Town CIB by 6:00 pm Monday.”
In the meantime, lawmen are seeking the public’s assistance in locating these persons.
Anyone with information of their whereabouts is being asked to call the Police Emergency at 119, Crime Stop at 3 1 1, Denham Town CIB at 876-948-6443, SSP Phipps at 876-285-1964, or the nearest police station.
