A drive-by shooting has left one dead and three injured this morning in Unity Lane in Waterhouse, St Andrew.

The deceased has been identified as windshield wiper Alton Haffeden.

The injured persons are being treated at the hospital.

The incident happened about 9 o’clock and the commanding officer for St Andrew South, Senior Superintendent Kirk Ricketts, says the police believe that the shooting was a reprisal for Saturday’s stabbing death of Andre Douglas at a football match in the area.

Ricketts also said that the police cannot confirm reports of a child being killed in today’s shooting.

More information to come.

Note: An earlier social media post incorrectly stated that a child was shot and killed in the incident. This information was provided to our news team by police personnel at the scene. We regret the error.
