A 54-year old man was brutally beaten to death at his home in Peterkin district in Clarendon on Wednesday night. He has been identified as Harold Stewart, also called Errol. The Corporate Communications Unit, the information arm of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF), said two men, one armed with a gun and the other with a stick, carried out the act, minutes after 11 o'clock. The police report that a female companion, who was at home with Stewart, went outside to get water and encountered the two men.
