Wanted man, 46-year-old Glendon Amos, alias ‘Bull’, from Commodore district in Linstead, St Catherine, was captured by the police on Wednesday.
Amos was apprehended during a joint intelligence-led operation conducted by the Joint Anti-Gang Task Force (JAGTF), supported by Specialized Operations and the St Catherine North police, in Moneague, St Ann.
According to the police, during the operation, Amos attempted to evade capture by providing a false name, identifying himself as Glen Williams, when he was intercepted.
A second passenger, a 27-year-old mason from an undisclosed location, was also detained.
Amos was listed among the top 10 most wanted by the JAGTF and was recently featured on the Jamaica Constabulary Force's Wanted Wednesdays for murder.
He was being sought for the December 18, 2022, murder of Shawn Paul, also known as ‘Challa’, in Bueno Vista, Commodore district.
According to the police, Amos is also linked to several other serious and violent crimes in St Catherine and other parishes.
The police say the successful capture of Amos demonstrates the security forces’ unwavering commitment to tackling crime and bringing perpetrators to justice.
