THE latest police-involved shooting has left a father and son dead, and elicited a terse comment from Homeland Security Minister Roger Alexander that this was the end result when some people in society cannot behave.

The killings came after police received about 20 reports of extortion particularly in the Central Division, over the past few weeks, and began intense investigations. This led officers of the Anti-Extortion Unit to swoop down on a property in Cunupia, on which a church is located, during the early morning hours of October 2, with the intention of arresting suspects.

Police said that around 5.10 am, officers from the unit were carrying out an operation at Mon Plasir Road, Cunupia, in connection with reports of money being demanded by menace, commonly referred to as extortion.
