A police probe has been launched into the shooting death of a man by a Jamaica Labour Party caretaker/councillor in St Andrew on Monday night.
Reports are that about 9 o’clock the caretaker was at a traffic light along on Old Hope Road, in the vicinity of Retreat Avenue, when the man reportedly attempted to grab a pouch that was in his hand.
The politician then reportedly pulled his licensed firearm and fired at the man who ran and later collapsed.
The unidentified man was pronounced dead at hospital.
