The police officers followed the basic procedures and seized the entire place to protect the relevant clues left behind by the unknown culprits of the murder. The report of murder in Spanish Town was confirmed and the inquiry was initiated.

The body of the dead victim was ordered to be removed from the site of the crime and transferred to forensics for the further procedures and post-mortem. Meanwhile, the police department is conducting an investigation to trace the culprits. The reason behind the lethal attack against the victim is also not known which officers are trying to figure out.

The local people of Jamaica are sharing their views on the Spanish Town murder case. People are saying, “The reason behind so much crime is ignorance towards our duty in the society. If we keep the criminals aside, the normal people are also not doing really good things. It’s just who is at what side of jail bars.”

People also said, “We are lacking as a united society. Terms like community are just words now. Nobody stays together and no one stands for each other, that is why criminals are getting so fearless. People in gatherings are also alone in real, that is the reason why most crimes take place in places filled with people rather than a silent and abandoned place.”
