A 60-year-old man has become the latest victim of gun violence in the crime-prone Frazer's Content community of St Catherine.
He has been identified as Michael Steadman, unemployed, of Frazer's Boulevard, Spanish Town, St Catherine.
It is reported that, about 6 p.m. Monday, explosions were heard in the community and residents summoned the police.
On their arrival, Steadman was observed on the side of the road with what appeared to be gunshot wounds to the head.
He was assisted to the Spanish Town Hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.
Steadman's death followed that of Sheldon Reid, who was shot and killed in the community on Sunday.
The Spanish Town Criminal Investigations Branch is probing the matter.
