August Town Residents in Mourning Over Triple Murder

After the recent triple murder in Bedward Gardens, August Town, our news team visited the community and was met with severe tension, as residents fear reprisals. CVM LIVE understands the killings are connected to a gang feud between men from Bedward Gardens, and the neighboring Gaza Gang. 

Vigilance is the order of the day, as residents take extra precautions to ensure they do not fall victim to ongoing criminal activities in their August Town communities. This heightened carefulness follows Saturday’s triple murder, of twenty-four-year-old Rasheed Edwards, otherwise called “Buppy”, eighteen-year-old Keno Wray otherwise called “Brains” and a man only known as Jackson. 

Reports are that the three men stopped at a shop after leaving a party when armed men walked up and opened fire. Brains and Jackson died at the shop, while Buppy died while trying to escape. Community members are in disbelief and fear further tragedy by way of reprisals. Watch the full report:
