Murder in San Juan

Police said that at about 10 pm, Jameel Nicholson of Persad Lane, El Socorro was liming at Boundary Road, when a white car stopped in front of him.

Armed men alighted from the car and shot Nicholson, before getting back in and escaping.

The gunshots were heard by residents who alerted police.

When officers arrived, they found Nicholson’s body on the road. His body was removed to the Forensic Science Centre in St James where an autopsy will be done tomorrow, since today is a public holiday. Investigations are ongoing.
