Rasbert Turner, Star Writer


A St Catherine man who tried to convince persons that he was a member of the Jamaica Defence Force was stopped in his tracks by police personnel yesterday.


Reports are that about 5:30PM police personnel got a call from a school that a man was there trying to influence cadets.


The suspect then boarded a vehicle with students to a destination.


Police personnel intercepted the vehicle and he was held and interrogated.


He was then searched and a home-made gun was found in his possession.


The suspect was placed in custody by the Linstead police.


His name has been withheld until further investigation is conducted in the matter.
