A man who was taken into custody on Sunday after he crashed a stolen taxi into the perimeter fence of a church on Lyndhurst Road, St Andrew is yet to be charged. Security officials told the Jamaica Observer that the man, purporting to be a passenger, boarded the white Probox motor car in downtown Kingston approximately 5:00 am.

It is reported that he stabbed the driver, relieved him of the motor car, and made an escape. But the car had the services of a KingAlarm tracker and an alarm was subsequently made, triggering KingAlarm’s armed response units. Working with updated locations of the motor car on their in-vehicle tablets, the security guards began tracking the car from Orange Street as it headed towards Cross Roads.

The police were also summoned and the vehicle reportedly stopped on Retirement Road when someone was seen exiting the car. On realising that the vehicle was being followed, the driver sped off.(Jamaica Observer)…[+]
