Edgar McDonald, otherwise known as 'Indian', 'Pupa', or 'Eddie', was killed during a reported shoot-out with the police in a section of Gordon Town, St Andrew, known as 'Sugar Loaf'.
Reports are that about 11:20 p.m., personnel from the St Andrew North and Area Five police were conducting an operation in the community.
The team reportedly went to a premises where they were greeted with gunfire.
Further reports are that during the gun battle four member of the police team were shot and injured. They were treated at hospital and have been released.

In addition to that and another murder in 2008, McDonald was placed on the most wanted list after being linked to several crimes committed in the the community
