As police proceed with their investigation into Monday's mass shooting in Rockfort, which claimed the lives of five people, East Kingston Member of Parliament Phillip Paulwell has called on the community to cooperate with law enforcement to help identify those responsible.

A man believed to be one of the attackers was shot and killed during a confrontation with the police yesterday (Tues).

Prime Minister Andrew Holness, National Security Minister Dr. Horace Chang, along with the police and Mr. Paulwell, visited the area yesterday.

Mr. Paulwell, citing a potential turf war as a motive for the shooting, urged residents to support the police in their inquiry.
