The murder trial of five policemen charged in connection with the fatal shooting of three men in St Andrew in 2013 was adjourned until June 18 after one of the accused reported being ill.
The matter, which is before the Home Circuit Court, had already been scheduled to break today and resume on June 17 because one of the defence attorneys was unavailable.
Before the adjournment yesterday, defence attorney Hugh Wildman continued his cross-examination of a ballistic expert and superintendent of police, focusing on spent casings recovered from the scene and an Arcus pistol, one of two firearms recovered following the shooting.
