The St Catherine North police are reporting that the gun slaying of a man on Saturday in the division was done by his cronies.
Ryan Smith, otherwise called 'Stum', 20-year-old unemployed of Shelter Rock, Spanish Town, St Catherine, was found dead with gunshot wounds in his community on Saturday.
Reports are that sometime after 6 p.m., residents heard explosions and called the police.
Upon the arrival of investigators, Smith's body was found with what turned out to be gunshot wounds.
Meanwhile, The Star was informed that Smith is likely to have been killed by someone whom he was associated with.
"We heard that he was involved in a shooting incident in the Thompson Pen community. He was seen as a person who caused the security forces to be targeting Shelter Rock, and so he was killed as a result," an investigator said.
Meanwhile, the St Catherine Major Investigation Task Force has launched a probe into the matter.
