A wanted man was fatally shot during a reported confrontation with police on Shaw Avenue in Bridgeport, Portmore, St Catherine, on Saturday night.
He has been identified as Oshanie Voshy Davidson, of King Weston, Lawrence Tavern, St Andrew. Police say a firearm was recovered at the scene.
The incident happened about 11:32 pm. Davidson had been wanted in connection with several murders and shootings in the Stony Hill and Lawrence Tavern areas. Previous police operations to capture him had failed, and he reportedly fled his community after a spike in violence there last year.
Superintendent Randy Sweeney, head of the St Andrew North Division, confirmed the operation and said intelligence led police to Davidson’s location.
The Independent Commission of Investigations (INDECOM) is probing the incident.
Meanwhile, police are still seeking the following individuals from the St Andrew North Division:
Persons of Interest:
- Tevin Harris, alias Ratty, of 100 Lane, Kingston 19 — murder
- Keniel Copeland, alias Bulbie, of Cassava Piece, Kingston 8 — murder and shooting
