Police are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding a wounding incident at Perry Bay, which left a 22yrs old mother dead.

Shariece Henry of Christian Street, Grays Farm was pronounced dead at the Mount St. Johns Medical Center, shortly after she arrived there with multiple wounds about her body.

This is the 5th homicide for the year 2016.

The deceased reportedly went to the home of Omarley Henry, the father of her 4yr old daughter to collect her child, who apparently was spending time with him.

It is alleged that an argument ensued between both parties, which led to Henry arming himself with a sharp object, which he used to inflict several wounds about the victim’s body.

He later fled the scene and is still at large. The alleged incident occurred around 7:45 pm on Monday.

Meanwhile, the police have made an appeal for Omarley Henry, aka “Drop Sleep” of Perry Bay to surrender himself immediately. This he can do at any police station accompanied by a family member or his attorney.

Anyone knowing his whereabouts is also asked to contact the nearest police station, or call the Criminal Investigations Department at 462-3913\14.
