A 28-year-old man was killed in a confrontation with police on Wednesday in Enterprise.

The deceased has been identified as Brent Codrinton of Jerningham Road in Cunupia.

According to police reports, at about 4 p.m. a team of officers from the Central Division Task Force (Area North) were conducting patrols along Enterprise Street, when they observed a Toyota Aqua speeding along the roadway and driving in a reckless manner. This aroused the suspicion of officers who attempted to intercept the car. However, the driver ignored the police and sped off.
