Five shot in two incidents

Five persons were shot in two separate incidents in the St Andrew South Police Division last night.

The first incident occurred on Nelson Road, located off Waltham Park Road in Kingston 13. Residents reported hearing loud explosions about 9:30 p.m. One man only identified as 'Corn and Bean' or 'Alex' was found suffering from gunshot wounds. He was rushed to hospital.

"A whole heap of shot fire. About 15 to 20 shot buss," a resident told THE STAR. While at that scene, investigators were called to another drive-by shooting on McKinley Crescent. This incident occurred about 9:45 p.m. The news team gathered that four persons were shot and injured.

Sections of the police division have been under curfew following the triple fatal shooting in Maverley last week.
