Police officers in east Kingston gunned down three men, and footage has been now obtained from Moon-10 sources. The incident, which occurred on November 10, led to the arrest of two policemen who are currently facing murder charges.
The Kingston Eastern policemen, Corporal Mark Roye and Constable Kelby White reported encountering a group of men while patrolling Windward Road at around 2:30 a.m. on November 10. There was a standoff between the officers, and shots were fired.
Three men, who are allegedly suspects in a robbery ring, were killed in the shooting. One of the policemen was injured, but it was reported to be non-life-threatening. Following the incident, two illegal guns were allegedly retrieved.
However, the footage, showing the incident from a surveillance camera, depicts the men being killed by the officers in execution style, as they were on the ground.
According to a report, Roye and White were apprehended on November 17. They have each been charged with several offences, including three counts of murder, using a firearm in the commission of a felony, discharging a firearm within 40 yards of a public thoroughfare, placing an item on the scene of a crime, and wilfully lying to the commissioner of police.
An investigation into the incident has since been launched by the Independent Commission of Investigations (INDECOM).
