Campbell, otherwise called 'Fat Man' was yesterday handed over to members of the High Command at the Office of the Commissioner of Police by Bishop Rohan Edwards.
Three children are among the five people killed in Sunday's attack on March Pen Road in Spanish Town, St Catherine.
They are: two-year-old, Koyandra Wynter, nine-year-old, Revaughn Evans and 14-year-old Marvin Campbell Jnr.
The other casualties were 22-two-year-old, Venisha Bartley and 24-year-old Salesha Evans.
Residents reported that gunmen dressed in dark-coloured clothing, identified themselves as policemen and then barged into two houses occupied by the five people before opening fire and setting the premises ablaze.
Campbell was wanted for a number of offences including incest and was named as a person of interest in connection with a recent triple murder in Spanish Town.
