A teenager has been detained for the murder of 11-month-old Omar Lindo.
He was held in Courage district, Gordon Town, St Andrew, on Saturday, police said.
His name has not been released, but the police's Corporate Communications Unit says arrangements are being made for him to be interviewed in the presence of his attorney.
The baby, who was shot by gunmen chasing a man on Chancery Lane, was being bathed by his mother when he was shot.
It is understood that the shooting resulted from a gang feud. Reports are that a man from one gang was chased by members of another during a shoot-out.
The man ran into the yard and the gunmen followed.
An older child was also shot and injured during the exchange of gunfire.
