In­stead of prepar­ing for the first birth­day of her in­fant son, Leona Allen now has to make fu­ner­al arrange­ments for her son and com­mon-law hus­band, af­ter an ear­ly morn­ing shoot­ing in Dun­don­ald Hill, St James.

Po­lice said Joseph Sut­ton, 25 and his 11-month-old son Jay­den were asleep on the bed in their home just be­fore 1 am when they heard their pet dog bark­ing loud­ly.

Allen went to check on what was caus­ing the com­mo­tion when a stranger stuck a gun through the bed­room win­dow of the house, shoot­ing both fa­ther and son, be­fore flee­ing on foot.
