Those killed have been identified as Rosevelt Edwards, a 29-year-old employee of Kingston Terminal and 34-year-old Shauna Graham of Old Harbour, St Catherine.

"I know that the child will always remember the wickedness that took place here this morning, although it look like shi nuh know shi will never forget," a female bystander said.

An alarm was raised and persons went into the house where Graham was found in the bedroom also with gunshot wounds.
