Residents of Chapman Lane, St Michael, say they are still trying to come to terms with the fatal shooting of a young man from their community, the third area resident to be killed this year.

The death of Jameson Fields, 30, of 3rd Avenue, Chapman Lane, has pushed the country’s murder toll for the year to 33.

Fields was sitting near a shed at Hutson Alley, The City, at about 5.35 pm on Sunday when he was shot by an assailant.
