POLICE are requesting the public’s help in locating a 25-year-old man they believe has information on a shooting in Fox Hill that left one man dead and three others, including a woman, in hospital on Saturday.

Jamaal Gibson also known as “Eggie” of Step Street, Fox Hill has been described as a dark brown male, of slim build and 6’ in height.

Police believe he has information on the murder of 36-year-old Ricardo Moss.

Moss was sitting at Grace Terrace off Bernard Road with a woman and two other men at a local business when a gunman opened fire on them around 10pm.

Moss was fatally shot in the head, the woman in her thigh, a second man was shot in his leg and the third man, believed to be Carlos Lamm, a former PLP election campaign manager, was shot in his stomach, requiring surgery on Sunday.

Mr Lamm was in charge of Education Minister Jerome Fitzgerald’s 2012 election campaign in the Marathon constituency and also worked to get Progressive Liberal Party candidate Renardo Curry elected during the North Abaco by-election.

The latest shooting in the Fox Hill community prompted its member of Parliament, Fred Mitchell, to release a statement that he was “deeply saddened” to learn of another tragic shooting in his constituency.

“I express my condolences to the family of the deceased and pray for the recovery of those who were injured. It is very sad. I pledge to continue to work to bring about peace in Fox Hill and all of our neighbourhoods,” Mr Mitchell said.

Moss’ death brought the year’s murder count to 89, according to The Tribune’s records.

Anyone with information on the shooting is asked to called police anonymously at 919 or Crime Stoppers at 328-TIPS (8477) or 1-242-300-8476 in the Family Islands.
