Just a day before the anniversary of the brazen shooting of seven persons outside a house at 25 Prince of Wales Street, near National Heroes Circle in central Kingston, residents of the area were again in mourning yesterday. This time they were weeping for a three-year-old boy who was burnt to death at the same location.
"Jesus Christ, the little baby dead," screamed a woman, as several residents tried to keep her from falling to the ground.
Firefighters had just emerged from the building with news that the burnt body of the infant had been found.
