THE STAR has learnt that it was a dispute over an energy drink that resulted in the gruesome killing of a promoter in Portmore, St Catherine, recently.

Chase Facey, 24, otherwise called Carleito Style Dem of the Style Dem Crew, was killed in an incident that reportedly happened around 2:45 a.m. on August 18.

Information reaching THE STAR is that Facey was stabbed and killed while at a dance in the Westmeade community.

Reports from the Bridgeport police are that Facey was at the event in the community when residents observed that he had fallen to the ground. When checks were made, Facey was seen suffering from a wound to the chest. He was rushed to the hospital where he was pronounced dead.

Despite the report, a source explained that, "Him sen a girl go buy it (the drink) and di yute grab it from her. When him go to the yute dem ketch up ina argument and di yute hug him up and stab him in his chest. When him run off him drop right ina the middle a di dance."

Another source informed THE STAR that persons inside the dance were oblivious to what was happening.

"When the man run and drop ina the dance the selector deh pan 'ketch dah new dance deh'!"

The sources say Facey was on the ground for about 20 minutes before he was taken to the hospital.

But for relatives and friends the tragedy did not end there as THE STAR was informed that on Sunday a close friend of Facey was also shot and killed.

He has only been identified as 'Moby Dick'.

A relative of that deceased told THE STAR, "My cousin wasn't at the dance when the incident happened but him probably did a mek chat why dem come kill him."

Meanwhile, the Constabulary Communication Network yesterday confirmed that they were aware of both incidents, however, our news team was informed that investigations are ongoing.
