Split in the Spanish Town, St Catherine-based ‘Clansman’ gang has sparked tension around the bus park in the old capital.

The police say a split in the Spanish Town, St Catherine-based ‘Clansman’ gang has sparked tension around the bus park in the old capital.Police sources said that thugs from the notorious gang were feuding over the spoils of an extortion ring, which was being operated in the park.“Criminals from the Clansman gang are at odds over the extortion racket which they operate in the bus park … . They have people in fear,” The rift is suspected to be the motive behind the shooting death of a 21-year-old man on Thursday.The man, Shane Hill of Corletts Road in Spanish Town, was reportedly shot and killed about 9:30 a.m. as he walked in the community.
A man is said to have walked up to him and opened fire.Investigators say intelligence suggests that Taylor is part of a break-away group. The men who have distanced themselves from the gang have allegedly started their own racket.“Based on what we found out, it can be summed up that some men weren’t happy with how the gains were being divided, so they created their own group, so to speak, and started their own collecting,” the investigator explained. He added: “This is a very serious situation as it can prove dangerous, both to them, as well as the other persons who use the bus park.”He further explained, “Taxi and bus operators may end up on the wrong side of either group depending on who they decide to pay.”
