The police are theorizing that a gang feud led to the killing of two brothers at their home, in Long Bay, Barrett Town, St. James, last night (July 19).

Dead are 16-year-old Neyo Samuels and 21-year-old Gregory Forbes.

They were reportedly shot and killed and their house set ablaze.

Reports are that at about 11:40 p.m., residents heard gunshots then saw fire coming from the brother’s dwelling.

The police and firefighters were alerted and upon their arrival the charred remains of both victims were found.

Lawmen say preliminary investigations suggest a connection between this incident and an ongoing feud between two criminal groups known as ‘Fully Dunce’ and ‘Sinnaz’.

Both groups are reportedly involved in lottery scamming.
