According to the Jamaica Observer, Jamaican dancehall star Spragga Benz (aka Carlton Grant) is a person of interest and wanted for questioning in a triple murder that occurred in Jamaica’s Dunkirk area over the weekend. The police will have to wait however, because the dancehall artist is travelling overseas and is not expected to return to Jamaica before May 17. Something tells me he might extend that trip a little bit longer……
According to police reports, the dead men, 49-year-old Peter Escoffery, otherwise called ‘Stumpy’ of MacIntyre Villa, and Kenique Richards, otherwise called ‘Runkus’ of Lincoln Terrace, were watching TV when a group armed men stormed the building with high powered weaponry. An unidentified third man was also killed.
Spragga Benz attained much notariety for his role as a gangsta named Wayne in the Jamaican movie “Shottas”.
