The police are probing the slaying of a US citizen who was fatally shot by gunmen during a botched robbery in Shaw Park, St Ann, on Monday.
Dead is 53-year-old Phillip Bradley Crain, a real estate businessman from Garland, Texas, who was on vacation at a home he owned in Shaw Park. Crain arrived in the island on November 13.

According to the police, when the gunmen’s demands were not met, the men opened fire killing Crain on the spot.
It is reported that the gunmen did not hurt Crain’s relatives who were also at the premises.
