For Immediate Release:
 * MP condemns gunned attack which claims life of three year old
* Offers reward for capture of killer(s)
 West Kingston Member of Parliament, the Honourable Desmond McKenzie is condemning a brutal gun attack in Denham Town in his constituency on Saturday morning which resulted in three people being shot.
A three year old boy, who was among those shot, has reportedly died from injuries sustained.
A 31 year old man and an eight year old boy are nursing injuries arising from the shooting.
The incident occurred on 119 Nelson Street, Kingston 14.
Mr. McKenzie commented:
"I am condemning in the strongest terms this act of criminality. I extend my condolences to the family of the three year old boy who was shot and am hoping for the best concerning the eight year old who was injured and the 31 year old man who was also shot. The incident is most regrettable. We cannot allow our community to return to a state where violent crime is the norm. I appeal to residents to tell the Police what they know to enable a breakthrough in investigations as soon as possible. The perpetrator(s) of this act of criminality must be brought to swift and lawful justice."
The West Kingston MP went further:
" In fact, I am offering a 600-thousand dollar reward to anyone who gives credible information to law enforcement which leads to the arrest and charge of the person or persons responsible for this wicked act which resulted in a child being murdered and two other residents, including an eight year old, being injured. Enough is enough. We must resolve as communities to indicate that this kind of savagery will not be tolerated".
The Police have mounted a high level investigation into the incident.
Member of Parliament McKenzie says he will be taking steps to ensure that adequate grief counselling is offered to the family of the deceased three year old boy.
