Lucky escape for couple

 

Headless body

 

St Ann police have made no breakthrough in the kidnapping of a couple in Moneague, St Ann by five armed men Tuesday morning.

The couple was badly beaten to hand over keys to their bus and valuables after the men entered their house. They were left in Worthy Park Estate, St Catherine by the men who stole their minibus.

Reports to the North Coast Times are that about 4:30 a.m. the male of the household was about to drive to Ocho Rios for his regular morning trip to Kingston, when he was pounced upon and forced into the house by three men, two of whom were armed with guns.
The men beat him and his wife and took money and other valuables.
Two other men who were outside keeping watch were also armed and drove the get-away car while the three who had entered the house drove the bus with the couple to Worthy Park where they were left in the cane field.
