Photo Credit: @MariefHull/Twitter Sixteen (16) months after a ‘Sauce’ doubles vendor was gunned down and killed while selling to customers at the busy Curepe Junction, a second vendor was also killed in similar circumstances last night (Tuesday 22nd December 2020). According to reports, 31-year-old Kareem Jervis (aka ‘Smokey’) was at the Sauce doubles stand along the Southern Main Road in Curepe around 7:30pm on Tuesday night when he was approached by gunmen and shot multiple times about the body. He was rushed to the nearby Mt. Hope Hospital, but was declared dead on arrival at 7:40pm. Investigators said Jervis was shot in the left side of his chest, forearm and the right side of his back. Officers from the St. Joseph Police Station reponded to the crime scene and blocked off a portion of the Southern Main Road, causing some build up of traffic along the busy intersection. Investigations into the incident are ongoing. In eerily similar circumstances, Sauce doubles vendor Shazard Manick (aka ‘Shazo’), was also shot multiple times by gunmen on 10th August 2019, while he served customers along the Southern Main Road in Curepe. He also died at the Mt. Hope Hospital. His last moments were recorded and shared on social media by several persons before Police arrived on the scene. It’s interesting to note that Manick was the mentor for Jervis - having introduced him to the doubles business. Jervis even paid tribute to Manick following his murder. Robbery is not considered a motive in either murders as there were no attempts to steal anything by the gunmen, before or after the killings. They simply fled the scene afterwards.
