One of the country’s most wanted was shot and killed during a police/military operation in Clarendon today (February 8).

He is Nesta ‘Bigga Crime’ Morrison of Eleven Miles, Bull Bay, who was wanted for double murder, shooting and arson.

The intelligence led operation in Longville Park Clarendon was conducted by the Jamaica Defence Force and the Counter Terrorism and Organized Crime (C-TOC) branch.

The army tweeted that during the operation, ‘Bigga Crime’ engaged the members of the security forces in a gun battle, which ended in him being fatally shot.
