A policeman’s gun is now missing, after it was reportedly grabbed from a policeman’s holster last night by a man who is believed to be of unsound mind.

According to reports, several police officers were on duty along the volatile March Pen Road in Spanish Town at approximately 7:20 p.m. The madman reportedly sneaked up on one of the policemen and grabbed his gun from its holster. After getting the weapon, the man reportedly pointed it and began firing at the lawmen who took evasive action. The man was eventually shot by another policeman, but he managed to run away and jumped into a nearby canal, where he was later found dead.

Up to late last night, the police were unable to find their colleague’s firearm, but were still searching the area.
