A suspect in last week's murder of a cashier in St Elizabeth has turned himself into the Black River police.

The suspect has not yet been charged by the police.

Meanwhile, a manhunt is now on for another suspect, who is believed to be in hiding.

Last week Tuesday night, 50-year-old Mitchell West was murdered when gunmen robbed the supermarket where she was working.

She reportedly gave the robbers the money from the cash register before she was shot in the chest.

The men then escaped on foot.
