The outbreak of violence started Wednesday after the police apprehended a person affiliated with a relative of a high-ranking member of the One Order gang. Gunmen and other residents clashed with police and staged violent protests which caused a lockdown of the town.
Several police service vehicles were damaged.
Things escalated Thursday morning after news circulated that a leader in the One Order Gang, Othneil ‘Thickman’ Lobban, was fatally shot by the police in the Six Miles area of St Andrew late Wednesday night.
