December 29, 2023

The police in Mandeville say they have arrested and charged 25-year-old Oshane Clarke, otherwise called ‘Boom Boom’, after he allegedly stabbed a man to death, and injured another, during an argument in Manchester last weekend. 

The deceased has been identified as Stephan Mclaughin, otherwise called ‘Rice Bag’.

It is reported that about 10:00 a.m. on December 23, an argument developed between Clarke, Mclaughin, and a third man - who remains unidentified. 

At some point the argument got physical, during which McLauglin and the other man were stabbed several times all over their bodies, allegedly by Clarke.

Both men were taken to hospital where McLauglin was pronounced dead and the other man treated and later released.

Clarke was arrested during a police operation and interviewed in the presence of his attorney where he was charged with wounding with intent.

His court date is being finalised.
