Oneil Edwards of Voicemail.

Dancehall artiste Oneil Edwards remains unconscious in hospital as family members and friends cling to a prayer-filled hope that he will survive gun shot wounds.

Oneil, who is part of the popular dancehall group, Voicemail, was attacked and shot as he was about to enter his house on Belloc Road in Duhaney Park, St. Andrew Monday morning.

The police reported that the 36-year old entertainer drove up to his gate about 1:30 when gunmen pounced on him.

The explosions from their guns alerted residents who called the police.

The cops say his car was ransacked.

Earlier Monday afternoon, doctors performed surgery but were reportedly hampered by the lack of a CT scan machine at the hospital.

This was eventually done at another hospital.

The trio Voicemail is known for hits such as Nuh Behaviour, Weddy Weddy, Just Dance and Dance the Night Away.

Entertainment fraternity hold vigil

Meanwhile, Friends and well wishers of Oneil Edwards held a prayer vigil in Mandela Park in Half Way Tree Monday morning as news of his attack spread.

Holding hands, singing hymns and murmuring words towards the heavens, the group which comprised of members of the entertainment fraternity prayed for Oneil's safe passage through his ordeal.

"Prayer eases everything and what else (is there) for us to do but pray, what else is there for us to do but unite together as artistes. Everyone here is an artiste or a member of the industry and we're here because we all know that Oneil is not a trouble maker, he's a good youth, so whoever is a trying to take him out should know that he's alive and well and he's going to be alive tomorrow, and the next day until God is ready for him," said dancehall artist, Clifford Smith, also known as Mr. Vegas, who spoke on behalf of the group.

He also called for other artistes to speak out against crime and violence.

"We can only play our part and unit together as an industry. We can reach out to other artistes to stand up against the killing of kids and innocent people and stop glorifying bad man and guns because this is where it has led, one of our own being the victim ... everybody has to play a part," Mr. Vegas said.

Meanwhile, Olivia Grange, Minister responsible for Entertainment, says she is saddened by the shooting of Mr. Edwards and condemned the attack.

"I'm extremely saddened by the attack on Oneil and I sincerely hope that he will recover from his wounds. He and his colleagues have thrilled really entertained us with melodious harmonies and have gained a wide fan base throughout Jamaica and the world," she said.
