Police cut down Montego Bay gangsters
May 23, 2006
TWO REPUTED gangsters of the feared Stone Crusher gang, based in Norwood, St. James, were fatally shot and a high-powered weapon seized during a confrontation with police in Montego Bay on Sunday night.
Twenty-two-year-old Delano 'Bigga Crime' Williams and Roy McLennon, 20, both un-employed of Norwood, were killed during the incident, in which a police Toyota Hiace minibus was reportedly riddled with bullets.
Williams, who was recently elevated to the top of the St. James police most wanted list, was the primary lieutenant in the Stone Crusher gang.
UNDER INVESTIGATION
"Williams was being investi-gated for more than 10 murders, including a triple murder and two double murders," said Superintendent Warren Clarke, commanding officer for the St. James police division.
"We regard the apprehension of Bigga Crime as significant in the dismantling of the Stone Crusher gang as we continue to pursue members of the other gangs in the parish."
Stone Crusher; Tight Pants Crew, operating from the Albion and North Gully areas; Killer Bees in Granville; and One Order, in Flankers, have been fingered as the four major criminal networks behind the upsurge of violence in the parish.
Reports from Corporal Camille Tracey, Constabulary Communication Network officer for St. James, are that about 11:45 p.m., police were carrying out a special operation in Glendevon.
