The police have now detained three people in connection with the mid-morning stunner.

They have also recovered evidence from the cellphone left behind in the church by the killer.
The murder is a big blow for the family of the woman who worked at the National Commercial Bank in Montego Bay, St James.
Seven months ago, her husband died in a car crash in Lilliput, St James.
