Manchester, Jamaica: Gunman Fatally Shot- An alleged gunman was fatally shot by the police, and two of his accomplices are on the run following a high-speed chase and shootout between the security forces and armed men in Williamsfield, Manchester, on Sunday.

Reports are that at about 5:00 p.m., a team of officers was conducting a spot check along a section of Kendal district when they signaled the driver of a white Toyota Mark X to stop.

The driver failed to stop and drove off in the direction of Williamsfield, with the police giving chase.

The lawmen called for backup and managed to intercept the vehicle in the vicinity of the Williamsfield train line, but the driver still refused to stop and crashed into a truck.

The men again sped off and opened fire at the police, who took evasive action, resulting in the Toyota Mark X coming to a stop outside an establishment in the vicinity of Hope Village.

Two men reportedly jumped from the car and opened fire at the police before making their escape, while a third man was found inside the vehicle suffering from gunshot wounds.

He was taken to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.
