Man charged in Ming murder
(CNS): A man has now been charged in connection with the fatal shooting of Damion Ming in West Bay earlier this year. In keeping with the RCIPS’ recent policy of withholding the names of people charged with all crimes police said they had brought charges against a 26 year old man. No details of the individual or even the district the man was from were given. However police said that officers from the joint RCIPS and UK enquiry team had charged the man on Thursday afternoonwith murder and possession of an unlicensed firearm. Ming was gunned down near to his home in the Birch Tree Hill area of West Bay on Thursday 25 March, 2010.
Police said they anticipated that the 26-year-old man would appear in court on Friday 14 May 2010. Ming’s murder was the fifth and most recent killing in a surge of gang related violent shootings and murders which have occurred in West Bay this year.
Ming’s death was particularly ironic as the 29 year old West Bayer was due to return to Northward Prison the morning after he was shot and killed, to serve a sentence for drug trafficking after his appeal to the UK privy council had been denied.
