The family of a 62-year-old Jamaican-American man from Florida, who has gone missing in Jamaica, has placed a $1 million reward for any information on his whereabouts.

Fabian Hammond went missing sometime after June 15 when he was last seen at home in Kingston, wearing blue jeans and a blue shirt. He is said to be the younger brother of Jamaica’s king of Lover’s Rock, 68-year-old, Beres Hammond.

Hammond boarded a flight at Miami International Airport and arrived on June 15 at the Norman Manley International Airport, where a friend picked him up. He then was seen at his home before vanishing, according to Local 10 news outlet in Miami, Florida

His daughter, Fiona, told Local 10 that her father hasn’t spoken to anyone at all adding, “It’s just kind of alarming to us. It’s not in his nature to go MIA, and not let anyone know what he’s got going on.”

According to the daughter, Hammond was building a small strip mall in St. Ann, owns other properties on the island and is frequently in Jamaica for business. It has been reported that the police went to Hammond’s home sometime last week, where they found the luggage that he travelled with. 

His return flight to South Florida is booked for June 30. Anyone knowing the whereabouts of Hammond is being asked to contact the Allman Town Police Station at 876 922 2842, or 119.

Reading Time: 2 minutesThe United States is stepping up its push for deeper energy and infrastructure partnerships in the Caribbean, with a focus on Suriname’s emerging oil and gas sector and the region’s long-term energy security, according to Paul Watzlavick, Chargé d’Affaires at the US Embassy in Paramaribo.

“It’s increasingly clear that this region is an essential partner to the US,” Watzlavick said. “We want partnerships that support a strong workforce, keep our people safe and respect the sovereignty of every country.” He stressed that energy security in the Caribbean goes beyond production, highlighting the need for modern infrastructure, updated technologies and stronger systems across power generation and transmission. We need energy systems that are up to date. The needs here are very different from Trinidad or Texas, but the goal is the same,” Watzlavick said.
