This pointless tragedy did occur on Lime Tree Lane, which has been referred to as "infamous", "notorious" and "a place to avoid" here on Negril.com. You can do a search by going to the main (Home) page and under the green Entertainment listing is a Search Negril.com space. Type in "Lime Tree Lane" and you will find over 30 references to Lime Tree Lane, even about a double homicide back in June 2009.

As far back as 2008 (as far back as the search feature works) there have been references and warnings to avoid this one particular lane. We are saddened by the death of Ombretta and our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends, many of whom we know. But unfortunately crime on Lime Tree Lane is nothing new.

That being said, the police are working overtime to stop the "cowardly gunman" as the Commissioner of Police Dr Carl Williams called them.
