St Ann, Jamaica: Woman Murdered in St Ann – Disgruntled residents in Bamboo, St Ann, urge police to swiftly apprehend those responsible for the brutal killing of an 80-year-old woman at her home in Spring Gardens district on Wednesday, with her house set ablaze.
The deceased, identified as Sylvia Barrett, was a well-known farmer who also ran a ground provisions shop from her home.
Reports indicate that shortly after 6:00 pm, a family member noticed fire emanating from a section of her four-bedroom concrete house and raised the alarm.
