Chang says arrest expected in 'a few days' for murderer of woman killed in church

National Security Minister, Dr Horace Chang,  told reporters this afternoon that investigators have assured him that they already have a suspect on their radar for the murder of Andrea Lowe-Garwood.

Lowe-Garwood, 51, was gunned down while at church in Falmouth, Trelawny this morning.

Lowe Garwood, an employee of the National Commercial Bank, was shot several times in the midst of worship at the Agape Christian Fellowship Church on Market Street, the police say.

The gunman then escaped in a waiting motor car.  

The incident sent congregants scampering for cover, as many frightened worshippers screamed and openly wept. The breakdown in the church service was caught on Facebook Live, which the church was using to stream its worship activities. 

Chang says the police are making progress with their investigations.
