Gang warfare is reeling out of control in the Martin's area and another man was executed in the City today - and it happened in broad daylight on Mahogany Street - one of the busiest areas in the city.
Just after 4:00, there was the report of as many as 10 shots in this community that has been rattled by multiple shootings in he past two days.
This time, It was a callous and cold-hearted murder of a dollar-van driver that may have endangered not just him but his passengers and the many pedestrians around. Cherisse Halsall was on the scene minutes later. Here's what she saw.
It's mayhem in the City tonight as dollar van driver Lynroy Longsworth became the 3rd murder victim in less than 24 hours.
Our team arrived on the scene in time to observe a loved one's realisation of his death and to hear this blood-curdling scream.
Longsworth was in the news in 2019 when he and his girlfriend Kenisha Beaton were arrested for drug trafficking. Two months later a man was killed in the couple's alleged former stash house.
And today when Longsworth reportedly received multiple shots to the head he may have became the second person to be killed in retaliation for that July 2019 drug bust. We saw 10 evidence markers on the ground.
Police are still on the scene but whatever the reason Longsworth was targeted one thing is for sure, murder has become much easier in a world where gunmen can simply disappear into a sea of masks.
We'll have more on this story tomorrow.
