The police are reporting that one of the four men shot in Slim Lane, Curatoe Hill, Clarendon, on Wednesday has succumbed to his injuries.
He is 32-year-old Marvin Harriott, an event decorator of Slim Lane.
Harriott was admitted in critical condition in hospital.
Sleuths had theorised that the attack was a reprisal for the February murder of a man in the same community, stemming from an alleged ongoing feud over the construction of a shop, which has been blamed for causing a decline in revenue at another establishment.
According to reports, about 8:45 p.m. on Wednesday, the men were at a shop when a white Nissan Tiida motor car pulled up, and two men armed with handguns fired several shots before fleeing the scene.
The injured men were rushed to hospital.
