The Police are reporting that due to citizen involvement they were able to recover a stolen motor vehicle and arrest one man.
The Police say residents of Charlemont in St. Catherine called them after they observed activities they believe were suspicious.
Reports are that about 12:00 p.m., a local Police team responded to the area. Upon arrival, the Police observed two motor vehicles with a group of men inside. On seeing the Police, one of the vehicles sped off. A Police chase ensued and the vehicle later crashed into a wall.
The four men reportedly exited the motor vehicle and fired at the Police. Three of the men escaped during the incident.
The fourth man was held by the Police and a Smith and Wesson firearm taken from him. Both motor vehicles, one of which was reported stolen in Kingston, were also seized.
CVM Live understands that the identity of the man arrested is being withheld pending further investigations.
