The Port Antonio police report that about 11 o'clock on Tuesday night, Pink and James were among persons playing a game of domino at Alfred Lane in Portland when a grey Toyota Fielder motor car drove up and a gunman exited the rear of the vehicle, who opened fire.
At the end of the shooting, Pink, who was in an advanced stage of pregnancy, and James were found suffering from gunshot wounds.
They were taken to the Port Antonio Hospital where they were pronounced dead.
