Samuel ‘Frauty’ Dixon, a well-known businessman, was shot dead Monday night outside his Tower Heights residence in St. Mary.
According to reports, the event happened just after 6:40 p.m.
According to police reports, unidentified attackers shot up Dixon’s sport utility vehicle as he entered his home. According to reports, the businessman tried to flee, but his assailants shot him several times.
Dixon ran a number of service stations in Ocho Rios, St Ann, and at Buff Bay and Bryan’s Bay in Portland. In 2017, he donated a number of surgical beds to the Port Antonio Hospital.
Following the shooting death of Albert “Bugsie” Lindsay, Dixon is the second businessman from Portland to be assassinated since the beginning of March 2025.
