By Aaron Humes: Police have arrested a suspect in connection with the murder of Santiago Garcia, which took place on Sunday, March 30, in Pomona Village. The suspect, 31-year-old Kenroy Kelvin Smith, was apprehended today, Tuesday, and has been formally charged with murder.
Garcia received a call from his stepfather, Jason Sharp, requesting a ride to a nearby neighborhood. Upon their arrival, the two men allegedly met with Kenroy Smith to purchase cannabis. An altercation broke out, leading to a violent confrontation.
Witnesses reported seeing Garcia and Sharp attacked, with Garcia sustaining fatal stab wounds and Sharp suffering serious injuries. Smith reportedly took both men to the Southern Regional Hospital along with himself as he too had been injured, then turned himself in to Dangriga police.
Smith is currently being held in custody, awaiting a court appearance where he will face the charges against him.
