Vybz Kartel daughter says she doesn’t have a relationship with her brothers.
Vybz Kartel always displays his love for his kids on social media, especially his daughter Adi’Anna, who recently feel questions from the deejays fans on Instagram. The incarcerated deejay regularly post photos of his kids on the Gram, but some fans are wond
ering why he has never posted pictures of all his kids together.<br />

The “Fever” deejay’s daughter was asked, “Do you link up with your brothers?” She responded saying, “Not really I guess their mom is against it so.” The 11-year-old added an “I don’t know” emoji at the end of her response.<br />
In 2017, Vybz Kartel released a song “Don’t Come Back” rumored to be a diss track aimed at his baby mama Tanesha “Shorty” Johnson.
“Gyal pack up her things, f*** you / Talk ’bout me a stale news (ooh) / Gwaan then but don’t come back / When you hear Worl’ Boss got juice (ooh) / Ungrateful b**ch tododooo (ooh) / Adianna and Mommy me choose (ooh),” Kartel spits.</div>

Dancehall artiste Dovey Magnum is in no mood to prolong arguments surrounding whether or not she is on good terms with fellow artistes Ishawna and Jada Kingdom.
Both Ms Kingdom and Ishawna were absent from Dovey's all-female show late last month. In a television interview before the
event, Dovey claimed that a misunderstanding between Ishawna and Ms Kingdom resulted in both of them withdrawing from the line-up.
With a feud between dancehall artistes D'Angel and Spice escalating earlier this week, Dovey says she wants to steer clear of all controversies and focus on music.
"Honestly, I'm past that. I'm good. I don't judge no one, and I don't carry grudges especially not for female artistes. Even with all that went down, it come in like nothing to me. At the end of the day, regardless of what happened, the party was going to be successful because whatever I touch is always successful even if it doesn't turn out how I planned," she said.

</script>
Dovey added that having overcome so many obstacles on her way to being one of the hottest females in the dancehall, she is not concerned with petty arguments or even competing to be on top.
"I was never in this to compete against nobody. Everyone in this business are my co-workers, and I support them and their music. My thing was always different. I am an independent artiste, so everybody know how dat set. But me deh yah a just gwaan put in the work and push me craft. Me nuh want no title, dem can just gwaan do weh dem a do. I'm the 'female alpha'. Dat a my title. I want to be so great, so I can share my greatness," she said.
focus on her craft
Meanwhile, Dovey said that she intends to focus on her craft, as people are now looking to her for a single that can top Bawl Out.
"No matter what I drop right now, it's going to be fantastic and great, but Bawl Out will forever be right there no matter what. Bawl Out was an organic song on another level where I don't think it a go stop playing right now. It's been a year, and now that me start travel international with it, there is more room for it to keep getting bigger and bigger," she said.
"Nevertheless, I have some great tracks coming out like, Juju and Good Good Gyal Me Be, so my thing can't limit and me can't predict say dat a go gwaan or dat a go gwaan. We haffi just wait till it drop and see. I want my fans to continue spreading the word and pressure dem DJs yah a road because me have a whole bunch a stuff coming out."</div>

The two men held in connection with the killing of Shanoya Wray, the 14-year-old girl whose remains were found in a bathtub filled with corrosive chemicals, were remanded in custody when they re-appeared in the Kingston and St Andrew Parish Court on Monday.
The men, Trinidadian national Sanju Maharaj, 27, and 19-year-old Jamaican Leonardo Madden, who is a former medical student, were remanded and a new hearing date of October 12 set in the matter that attracted a large group of protestors at the front of the court.
The court was also told that the post-mortem report and other documents relevant to the case were not ready.
In the case of Madden, his attorney, Peter Champagnie, asked the court for a psychological report.
Meanwhile, a group of Wray’s family members and supporters demonstrated outside the compound of the court on Monday, calling for justice for the slain teenager.
Her funeral service was held a day earlier on Sunday at the Bedward Gardens Seventh Day Adventist Church in the Bedward Gardens community in St Andrew.
Wray’s skeletal remains were found in a house on Walley Close in Mona, St Andrew in July, five days after she was reported missing .
The police were called to the house in the upscale community after neighbours reported smelling a foul odour, peered through a bathroom window and saw Wray’s body in the bath tub.
According to investigators, Maharaj killed Wray and used chemicals in an attempt to get rid of the body. Reports are that he was already before the Home Circuit Court on accusation of having had sex with the underage girl.</div>

A killer crocodile might be on the prowl in the Hellshire Pond area of Portmore, St Catherine. The police have confirmed that 67-year-old Wilford Edmondson was the victim of a deadly crocodile attack on Sunday morning.

</script>
Reports are that about 9:15 am, Edmondson was among a group of friends fishing when the crocodile attacked. The reptile took the senior citizen into the mangrove and inflicted wounds to his head.
"The Marine Unit of the police searched for a while and recovered a part of the body, we don't have any information on whether NEPA has captured the crocodile as yet," a representative of the Constabulary Communications Unit (CCU) told Loop Jamaica reporter Claude Mills.
The police are continuing their investigations into the matter.
The National Environment and Planning Agency (NEPA) has repeatedly appealed to members of the public to desist from capturing or harming crocodiles.
The American Crocodile, which is one of Jamaica’s protected animals, is typically docile but can be aggressive when harassed, according to NEPA.
Crocodiles are protected under the Wild Life Protection Act and it is an offence to have a crocodile or any part of the animal in one’s possession. Anyone found guilty of these offences are liable to a fine of up to $100,000 or twelve (12) months imprisonment.
Members of the public are urged to call NEPA at 1-888-991-5005 or 754-7540 if crocodiles are seen in areas outside of their natural habitat where they may pose a threat to human activities or if they are being captured, harassed, harmed or the meat is being sold.
Reports may also be made to 119 or the nearest police station</div>

The Jamaica Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (JSPCA) is calling on the National Environmental Protection Agency (NEPA) to act quickly to neutralise the threat being posed by the crocodile which allegedly killed a man on Sunday morning .
"If it's caught, it must be put down," Pamela Lawson, managing director of the JSPCA, told Loop Jamaica reporter Claude Mills.
"The crocodile is protected but if NEPA catches it, it must be put down because it's a rule of thumb, I'm afraid, that once an animal causes grave injury to a human, it is always put down once you can establish that it's the right animal, so NEPA needs to act quickly."

NEPA has yet to respond to emailed queries directed to the government agency by the Loop news room up to the time of the publication of this article.
The agency repeatedly warns members of the public to desist from capturing or harming crocodiles, which is one of Jamaica’s protected species.
The reptile is typically docile but can be aggressive when harassed.
Crocodiles are protected under the Wild Life Protection Act and it is an offence to have a crocodile or any part of the animal in one’s possession. Anyone found guilty of these offences are liable to a fine of up to $100,000 or twelve (12) months imprisonment.
Members of the public are urged to call NEPA at 1-888-991-5005 or 754-7540 if crocodiles are seen in areas outside of their natural habitat where they may pose a threat to human activities or if they are being captured, harassed, harmed or the meat is being sold.
Reports may also be made to 119 or the nearest police station.

The Hanover police are investigating the gruesome killing of a man who was reportedly beheaded by a family member during an altercation at the attacker's home on Saturday morning.
The deceased has been identified as 25-year-old Keniel Hall of Rejoin district in the parish.
Reports from the Lucea police are that about 9:00 a.m., Hall went to visit his relative at River Road district in the parish after calls to the relative’s telephone went unanswered.
While at the relative’s house, an altercation developed between them, during which a machete was brought into play. Hall was chopped multiple times and his head severed.
Upon the arrival of the police who were summoned, the scene was processed and the mutilated body was removed.
The Lucea police who are investigating, are still in search of the suspect for questioning.
The bizarre incident comes on the heels of a double murder in the parish last Wednesday night, when an elderly woman and her grandson were brutally gunned down at their home.
The deceased have been identified as Laurel Fray, 91, and her grandson, Jessie Spence,15, of Malcolm Heights in Lucea.</div>

Cash and jewelry seized from a Jamaican man accused of masterminding a large lottery scam in the US will be liquidated and the proceeds doled out to victims.
They order came from a US federal judge and will be a welcome step towards getting at least some restitution for victims.
The property was seized from Lavrick Willocks when he was arrested in Jamaica in November 2016. It includes the equivalent of nearly US$12,000 and jewelry of unknown worth including gold chains, gold rings, gold and silver bracelets including one with a diamond, and Rolex watches.
Authorities say at least 90 mostly elderly Americans lost a total of more than US$5.7 million to the scam operated out of a Kingston, Jamaica, mansion where Willocks lived with his mother.
Court documents list victims in North Dakota, South Dakota, South Carolina and Texas, with illegal scam-related activity also alleged in New York, New Hampshire, California and Florida.
Willocks pleaded guilty a year ago to conspiracy in a deal with prosecutors and awaits sentencing. He faces up to 40 years in prison, though prosecutors will recommend about 10 years because he cooperated.
Sentencing likely will be later this year.

</script>
Willocks in April agreed to forfeit the property to the US government for restitution as Jamaican authorities prepared to take the cash. About a month later, the Jamaican government dropped its plans and US District Judge Daniel Hovland on July 9 signed an order of forfeiture to the US government.
The property isn't likely to end up in US hands for several months, according to Assistant US Attorney Clare Hochhalter. Willock's plea deal and others in the case call for restitution to the victims, though it isn't clear how realistic that is.
"Every effort is made to locate forfeitable assets, but it's a real challenge when dealing with foreign defendants," Hochhalter said.
The scam began to unravel when a North Dakota woman lost her life savings of more than US$300,000 in 2011. Federal authorities began investigating in 2012.
The case that resulted is believed to be the first large-scale Jamaican lottery scam tried in US courts, with federal conspiracy, fraud and money laundering charges filed against 27 people.
All have pleaded guilty, agreed to do so or been convicted, except a Rhode Island woman accused of funneling scam proceeds between the US and Jamaica through her airline job, and a man who was a fugitive until being captured by a Jamaican counter-terrorism team in January.
Melinda Bulgin and Mario Hines are scheduled for trial in September.</div>

The Vybz Kartel appeal entered a new interesting chapter with the introduction of an alleged "defence red herring" regarding a 2011 police report made by artiste Vanessa Bling (also known as Gaza Slim) - that she had been robbed by the deceased, Clive Williams, after the date of his death.<br />
<br />
"The judge introduced an alleged red herring that the deceased was robbed after the date of death. Gaza Slim has been illegally squeezed into the case through a back door crevice," attorney at law Bert Samuels told Loop News reporter Claude Mills a short time ago.<br />
<br />
Years ago, the prosecution had alleged that Vanessa Bling, real name Vanessa Saddler, and Kartel, real name Adidja Palmer, conspired to falsify evidence in relation to the murder of Clive 'Lizard' Williams, who was allegedly bludgeoned to death by a group of men including Kartel at a house in Havendale, St Andrew.
His body has not yet been found.<br />
<br />
Saddler had been charged in 2011 when she reported to the Constant Spring Police that she had been robbed by Williams after Kartel was arrested for his murder.<br />
<br />
In September 2014, the charges against Bling and her co-accused, deejay Vybz Kartel, were dropped in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate’s Court in Half-Way-Tree.<br />
<br />
The charges were dropped on the grounds that Kartel’s murder conviction and sentence, which is tied to the case, was being appealed.
Now it seems that Vanessa Bling will once again be pulled into the tangled web of the Vybz Kartel murder drama.
The Vybz Kartel appeal has been heating up since its resumption on Monday.<br />
<br />
Bianca Samuels, one of the attorneys for Shawn "Shawn Storm" Campbell, on Monday dropped a bombshell claiming that the text message reportedly found on one of the mobile phones taken from Vybz Kartel which seemed to suggest that Williams was "chop up fine, fine" was created six weeks before the victim's death.<br />
<br />
Samuels had been making her submissions in the murder appeal filed by the two entertainers against their conviction and prison sentence.<br />
<br />
She said evidence presented during their 17-week murder trial, which ended in April 2014, showed that the metadata was created on July 6, 2011, six weeks before prosecutors claim Williams was killed.<br />
<br />
On Tuesday, Samuels, who is representing Campbell, urged the three judges hearing the Vybz Kartel appeal to set aside the convictions and life sentences.<br />
<br />
Samuels believes the case is rife with multiple deficiencies, and that "these defects are incurable."
"Any attempt to cure them for retrial purposes would be to give the prosecution a second bite at an infected cherry," Samuels said.<br />
<br />
Vybz Kartel, Shawn "Shawn Storm" Campbell, Kahira Jones and Andre St John were convicted in March 2014 for the murder of Clive "Lizard" Williams.

<br />Entertainer Vybz Kartel and his three co-accused won a major victory Monday afternoon as the Court of Appeal ruled that fresh evidence will be admitted in the appeal hearing which began earlier in the day.
"It was a victorious day for all four appellants, the fresh evidence which was allowed today represents a great blow by the appellants against this conviction," a buoyant Bert Samuels told Loop Jamaica reporter Claude Mills.
Samuels represents Shawn Campbell, who is better known as recording artiste, ‘Shawn Storm’.
"The statement of the sole eyewitness that he arrived at Swallowfield at 8 pm, in a statement to the police eight days after the incident, collides with his sworn testimony that he arrived between 5 and 5:30 pm, and that the beatings commenced soon after," Samuels said.
"That means that by the time Shawn Campbell arrived at 8, he would have been excluded from participation in the beatings because by the reasoning of the prosecution, at this time, Clive Williams would have been dead," the prominent attorney added.
Williams was allegedly beaten to death in August 2011 at a house in Havendale, St Andrew. His body has not been found. Police experts had said at the trial that records from the mobile phone showed that the deceased, Williams, and accused, Campbell, were in St Catherine at 7.30 pm and not at Swallowfield between 5 pm to 5.30 pm on the day of the murder.
Samuels also argued that his client, Campbell had been denied the right of hearing and right to be present when material evidence was being presented against him. He was making reference to the allegations of bribery and jury-tampering that emerged at the end of the trial.

<br />
In relation to the jury foreman accusing a member of the jury of trying to bribe colleagues during the trial to return not guilty verdicts, the Court of Appeal ruled that Campbell’s affidavit showing he was excluded from chambers when the foreman made the allegations must be presented as fresh evidence, as Campbell had a constitutional right to be present.

"He (Campbell) was not invited into chambers by the judge to deal with the incident of bribery, and he was also excluded when the judge was dealing with the exclusion of a female juror who felt uncomfortable after she visited Horizon and claimed that she saw her son in the company of the appellants. Campbell was not allowed to participate in the discussion in chambers, none of the appellants were allowed," Samuels said.
The Court of Appeal also ruled that statements made by jurors in relation to the bribery trial must be admitted as fresh evidence. What compounds the situation is that it appears that the judge knew about the bribery attempt of the juror weeks before the end of trial.
"The judge elected to use expedience over justice," Samuels said.
Queen’s counsel Valerie Neita-Robertson and Samuels had applied for witness statements to form part of the appeal hearing to show that what the witnesses said in their statements to the police had differed from the evidence produced at the trial in the Home Circuit Court.
According to Samuels, Neita-Robertson argued that contaminated cellphone evidence was allowed at the trial, along with what was viewed as prejudicial video evidence that was also allowed.
"The tape of the bribery attempt was played in the jury room, and once that happened, the jury was not an impartial tribunal anymore," Samuels said.
Samuels theorised that the Court of Appeal hearing, initially expected to last three weeks, could be over in one week.
"The fulsome submissions which were made by the defence meant that the defence need not be on their feet too long and that was the reason for the adjournment until next week Monday. So next week, each appellant will have one day in court, the DPP will have one, and it will be over in one week," he said.

Samuels praised his legal team, comprising Bianca Samuels, Daynia Allen and Isat Buchanan for their tireless work in compiling "fulsome written submissions which amounted to 140 pages".
"The DPP has responded with just one and a half pages," Samuels reasoned in a thinly-veiled slight of Director of Public Prosecutions, Paula Llewellyn.
Monday's "fresh evidence" was not part of the original trial in which Vybz Kartel, Shawn "Shawn Storm" Campbell, Kahira Jones and Andre St John were convicted in March 2014 for the murder of Clive "Lizard" Williams.
The appeal is being heard by the president of the Court of Appeal Dennis Morrison, Justice Patrick Brooks and Justice Frank Williams.
The court will start hearing arguments in the appeal next Monday.</div>

Popular media personality, Simon Crosskill is in urgent need of blood as he prepares to undergo surgery for an undisclosed medical condition.
His daughter, former Jamaican beauty queen Danielle Crosskill on Wednesday issued an appeal for blood donations via social media.
"Hi everyone, my dad is undergoing his fourth surgery in four months and is in URGENT need of blood. Please, please donate if you can. Blood donations can be made to Simon Crosskill at the UWI blood bank or any blood bank island wide no matter your blood type," she said.
Simon Crosskill is a veteran broadcaster. He joined SportsMax in 2012 after departing RJR Group, where he had served in various capacities for many years, including as group head of sports at TVJ, station manager for HITZ 92 FM, and as co-host of 'Smile Jamaica' alongside his close friend Neville Bell.
He is the brother of late journalist Hugh Crosskill.</div>

The female KingAlarm officer who was present at the scene of an altercation, which led to the shooting of a man, at an apartment complex in New Kingston on Monday, is a former cop.

The Jamaica Constabulary Force’s corporate communications arm confirmed with Loop News that the woman was a member of the force up to a year ago, and based in Clarendon, when she resigned. The JCF did not disclose why she resigned.
She and other members of a King Alarm Armed Response team who were caught in a video of the controversial incident have been pulled from duty pending an investigation.
The video footage of the incident shows a licensed firearm holder engaged in a heated discussion with KingAlarm security officers about entering the property, before being attacked from behind by a man in civilian clothing said to be a security guard for the complex.
A struggle ensued between the two men and a shot was subsequently fired, hitting the alleged security guard in the neck. The injured man was rushed to the University Hospital of the West Indies, where he was admitted in stable condition.
Questions have been raised about the conduct of the KingAlarm officers at the scene, particularly the female officer, leading them to be pulled from duty.
In a news release Tuesday announcing the action, KingAlarm boss John Azar said: “Without the benefit of a thorough investigation into what transpired, I have seen enough on social media to cause me concern as relating to the actions of some of the individuals who were at the scene."</div>

Minister of Education, Youth and Information, Ruel Reid, says there was no fallout in the Grade Six Achievement Test (GSAT) results from the state of emergency (SOE) and zones of special operations (ZOSOs).

“Overall, to the credit of our students, parents and teachers, they have demonstrated resilience. We see no trend at all from any of the exam types… that there has been any marked decline in overall performance,” Reid said at a press conference at the Ministry on Tuesday to announce the results of the exam.
“We will have to do some more disaggregation of the data, but from the results I have reported, we see positive movements (overall), separate and apart from Mathematics, where we knew that there was a problem and we had interventions,” he noted.
An SOE is in operation in St. Catherine North, while ZOSOs are in effect in Mount Salem, St. James and Denham Town in West Kingston.
The Education Minister noted that the presence of the security forces in the communities have enabled the schools to focus on teaching and learning.

“Where we have had a state of emergency or zones of special operations, it has actually been positive, because what has happened is that we’ve had more controlled environments, reduction of crime and so on, and the improvement in leadership within our schools,” he said.
“Our teachers track the performance and the progress of our students and they give extra attention and more time to get the students ready,” he added.
The Minister announced that there was improved performance in four of five subject areas in GSAT.
Science was the biggest gainer, moving by 7.9 per cent to 72. 6 per cent from 64.7 per cent last year.
Passes in Communication Task jumped by 5.5 per cent to 81.7 per cent from 76.2 per cent; Social Studies moved by 1.6 per cent to 72. 2 per cent from 70.6 per cent; and Language Arts improved by one per cent to 73.8 per cent from 72.8 per cent.
Passes in Mathematics were 61.2 per cent, representing a 1.2 per cent decline over the 62.4 per cent recorded in 2017.
A total of 39,510 students (19,295 boys and 20,215 girls) were registered to sit GSAT in March, of which 30,789 (80 per cent) of these students were placed in one of their preferred schools.
Seventeen per cent, that is 6,524 students, were placed in secondary level schools that are within proximity of the institutions that they currently attend, and a further 1,438 students were placed manually in secondary-level schools in proximity to the address they submitted.</div>

The other schools will be able to obtain their results at 2:00 pm at the regional centres island-wide.
In outlining the details of this year's results, at the Heroes Circle-based ministry on Tuesday afternoon, Reid said there was an overall decline in the performance of the students in the mathematics exam, while science showed the biggest improvement.
According to Reid, having identified that this year's GSAT students were previously identified as being weak in mathematics, remedial efforts were made, which resulted in the students showing overall improvement, but still fell behind the 62.4 percent achieved last year, with 61.2.
This year's science result jumped 7.9 per cent point over last year's, which was 64.7 per cent moving to 72.6 per cent with communication task being the next big gainer, having achieved 81.7 per cent from 76.2 per cent.
According to Reid, the ministry created history this year, by being able to publish the results two weeks earlier than its usual publication of the third week in June. He attributed this to the efficiency of the staff.

Meanwhile, Reid said that all are in place for the Primary Exit Profile (PEP), which will replace GSAT next year.
He said, "the ministry has developed an admirable track record of administering examinations and delivering the results on time. PEP will be no exception."
Reid said that the ministry had to change the approach at the primary level, as Maths and English statistics indicate that there is a drop in the success of students at the Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC), compared to the GSAT results of the same students five years earlier.</div>

A man was attacked and shot in his face by men travelling in a motor vehicle along Darling Street in West Kingston on Thursday afternoon.
Reports are that about 3:30 p.m., the man who is believed to be a bus operator, was standing close to the bus park next door to the Darling Street Police Station, when men drove up in a vehicle and opened fire at him.
Having hit their target, the men in the vehicle then drove away.
“When the men left, the injured man was found suffering from gunshot wounds,” said an alleged eyewitness.
The injured man has since been hospitalised.
The police said the shooting is the latest in an ongoing feud between gang members from Tivoli Gardens and Denham Town, which has been played out in tit-for-tat gun attacks mainly in Denham Town and the Darling Street area.
A man and a woman were shot and injured in a drive-by shooting at the same Darling Street location just over a month ago.</div>

Two of five men who were listed by the Kingston Eastern police as being wanted for the murder of a man in Rockfort are now in police custody.
The police said the men - Leighton 'Livity' Coke and Christopher 'Titti Man' Coke - both turned themselves in to the police late on Wednesday.
The police said arrangements are now being made for the two to be interviewed.
The five persons were listed as being wanted in relation to the March 12 murder of Patrick Davis, otherwise called ‘P Boy’.
Three other men - 27-year-old Lanchester Coke, otherwise called ‘Bamma T’; another man only known as ‘Ratty’; and David Biggs, otherwise called ‘Alien’, who is of an unknown address – have so far not heeded the call from the police for them to surrender.
The Cokes are all relatives of incarcerated gangster, Christopher ‘Dudus’ Coke.
The police have said anyone with information that can assist in capturing these men are being asked to contact the Elletson Road Criminal Investigation Branch at 928-4200, the police 119 emergency number, the nearest police station, or Crime Stop at 311 and 811.

While the neighbouring community of Grange Hill has been cowering in the wake of a deadly attack by marauding gunmen, a female resident of Frome is being hailed as a hero after she bravely fought off and disarmed a gunman who had minutes before invaded her home and shot her spouse.
The incident occurred on the night of Saturday May 5, as the couple relaxed inside their humble home.
Police report that the man, who was wearing a mask to conceal his identity, barged into the home and shot the woman’s spouse several times. But before he could escape the scene of the crime, the woman leapt into action and floored the attacker with several punches. His weapon fell from his grasp during the assault by the enraged woman, who grabbed it and held him at gunpoint until the police arrived.
The wounded man was taken to hospital where he has been admitted in serious but stable condition while his attacker is now behind bars facing charges of shooting with intent and illegal possession of a firearm and ammunition.
The shooting suspect is reported to be known to the couple.
Westmoreland has been on edge since seven persons were killed in a number of attacks on communities in and around Grange Hill last Tuesday, which the police have linked to a lotto scam-related feud.</div>

Reports are that while group of persons gathered at the accident scene, another vehicle being driven on the busy road struck down several of the onlookers. They were rushed to hospital, where the 55-year-old man was pronounced dead.
The crash came only hours after a woman was killed in another multi-vehicle bang-up on Mandela Highway.
In that incident earlier on Sunday, a motorist lost control of his vehicle, which collided with a truck and three other vehicles, including a hearse. The five vehicles were damaged in the incident.
Arising from the crash, five people were taken to hospital, where one of the victims, a female, was pronounced dead. The identity of the woman has not yet been released.
Forty eight hours before that incident, another multi-vehicle collision took place along Mandela Highway, resulting in 10 persons sustaining injury.
A total of eight vehicles were damaged in that crash, with no reported fatality in that incident.

A Clarendon taxi operator lost his life on Saturday after being allegedly attacked and almost beheaded by another man in St Catherine in a love triangle that ticked off at the home of the woman between then.
Police reports are that Clarence Clarke of a Clarendon address was chopped to death by Alvin Messam, otherwise called ‘Kevin’, a 35-year-old construction worker of Spanish Town, St Catherine.
Reports are that Clarke went to visit his girlfriend, so far identified only as ‘Kerry-Ann’, who resides in the White Water Housing Scheme just outside Spanish Town in St Catherine.
Whilst inside the house, Messam, who is the father of Kerry-Ann’s child, visited the home around 9:00 p.m., and verbal fireworks immediately erupted between the two men.
The heated argument led to a physical fight between them.
Clarke eventually left the house and while walking along the roadway, Messam reportedly used a machete to chop him, partially severing his head.
Clarke was taken to the Spanish Town Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
The Spanish Town police are investigating the matter.
Further are expected in relation to the incident.

Elizabeth (Liz) Swann Miller is a naturopath and best-selling Amazon author who over the past 15 years has helped thousands of women and men lose weight and reclaim their health, well-being, and happiness.
Liz’s latest book, The Red Tea Detox reveals a delicious tea that has helped numerous people lose as much as 14 pounds in 14 days since the book was published. Elizabeth, herself, has lost a total of 41 pounds thanks to the red tea.
“This whole thing came about because of legend that I had heard,” Liz explained. “I heard this tale that there was this delicious red tea – some called it a ‘voodoo tea’ – that members of a Kenyan tribe in the remote African wilderness drank to stop all feelings of hunger.”
The tale intrigued Liz so much that she ended up traveling to the area where she literally put her life on the line (thanks to an encounter with a dangerous snake) to uncover the truth.
“What I learned was that yes indeed there is a tea that not only stops hunger cravings but that also burns fat and gives you unlimited energy,” Liz said. “This discovery was well worth whatever hardships I endured in my travels.”
The best news for dieters is that thanks to the wonders of modern global shipping, the ingredients to make the tea can easily be found at the local grocery store.

“When you drink this tea you feel full, satisfied, and energized almost instantly, and your body will actually activate its natural ability to burn fat, a built-in superpower you might not have used in years,” Liz said.
Red Tea contains 5 herbal ingredients that work in harmony to “speak instructions” from your brain to your fat cells to burn unwanted fat — and shrink your fat cells without any feelings of hunger.
The Red Tea Detox Program covers more than a decade of research and almost three years of real-world testing. It’s a complete program that quickly detoxes the body to “flush away” fat, and it works fast for everyone.
In fact, with <a href="http://dnscrop.redteax.hop.clickbank.net/">The Red Tea Detox Program</a>, you can strip off five, ten, fifteen pounds of fat or more in just 14 days.

Security experts find cops wanting in the handling of some arrests</h1>

They are men and women who have sworn to serve and protect, but in a society where indiscipline and high levels of crime reign, the police in Jamaica are forced to face life and death situations almost daily in the executions of their duties.
But while the need to maintain law and order many times requires cops to risk life and limb to bring criminals to book, some policemen and women have been found wanting in how they have on occasions, conducted themselves in situations where they have to carry out arrests.
This is based on a Loop News examination of the subject matter and referencing a number of scenarios and situations to two noted security experts and a key officer high up the ranks of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF).
A local security expert who has had much experience working with security forces overseas, made a number of startling revelations while looking at the issue.
The security expert said while it is true that law enforcers are forced to encounter unruly members of the public locally, some of the methods that the police are using are not in keeping with international standards, and are in fact unnecessarily placing officers themselves and the persons who they are arresting in harm’s way.
“We understand that some of the situations that policemen and women in Jamaica are facing are like no other in the world, but some of the methods that they (local cops) are using to arrest individuals are questionable,” the security expert argued.
“Too often we are seeing police officers trying to arrest individuals in a crowded area and the situation reaches points where the police are outnumbered, but still they fail or take too long to call for additional support when the situation escalates,” said the security expert.
In fact, in some instances, great concern was expressed about police officers who were seen on videos trying to carry out arrests in the midst of large, unruly crowds, and with the high level of indiscipline among members of the general public, the situations get amplified, which brings a whole new dimension to the issue, the security expert said.
It was, however, conceded that one of the security experts that a challenge that local police face that officers in many other countries hardly have to contend with, is that the level of respect for law enforcement is low in the island.
“In many countries there are greater levels of respect for law enforcement. In numerous jurisdictions, when individuals are instructed to comply with law enforcement officers, these instructions are followed,” the expert outlined.

<ins class="adsbygoogle" data-ad-format="auto" style="display: block;"></ins><script>

</script>
The senior officer in the JCF said some of the suggestions that were made by the security experts are not necessarily sound, but admitted that there is need for improvements in terms of how law enforcement officers generally interact with members of the public, which was said to be necessary to build public trust in members of the JCF.
It was generally noted from examination of various videos of police handling of agitated arrest scenarios over recent weeks that unnecessary security risks were being taken, plus there were some other procedural breaches that were cited on the part of some officers while lawfully carrying out their duties. This included the ‘need’ for policemen to pull their side arms more to intimidate crowds and protect the custody of the weapons than any real intention or requirement to use (fire) the weapons.
The officer outlined that among the methods to address the issue is a greater push to implement community-type policing, where there is more interaction and communication between the citizens and the police.

The Independent Commission of Investigation (INDECOM) is to launch a probe following the release of a video showing Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) members reportedly abusing a man who is suspected to have attacked and chopped a policeman in Christiana, Manchester on Tuesday.
However, it is not expected to be a very welcomed visit by the commission’s investigators, based on the community mindset that was demonstrated in the video, in which outrage was declared at the unprovoked attack on the lawmen, which was also captured on video.
In the six-minute video, the man, who is believed to be of unsound mind, is seen lying on the ground where he is roughly handcuffed by men identified as policemen in plain clothes.
<iframe allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="420" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/mXt9dUdPCNw" width="580"></iframe><br />
A man is seen standing on the neck of the screaming suspect, and then kicking him in the face.
The video shows where one of the policemen instructs the suspected attacker to walk even though it appeared that one of his feet is broken.
The video shows where the man is then placed on the ground and dragged to a waiting car.
He is then placed in the police vehicle and a policeman is seen stepping on the leg that appeared to have been broken.
The suspect can be heard screaming in pain.
This all took place while angry members of the public, with the odd view to the contrary, are demanding that that a policeman kill the suspect.
The policeman, however, ignores the calls from the angry mob.
Security experts who have seen the video say they understand that tempers ran high after the man reportedly attacked and chopped the policeman several times, but said the matter could have been dealt with in a more professional manner, as the suspect was restrained and posed no further threat to anyone.</div>
