Kingston East police renew appeal for wanted man Kerrin ‘Bones’ Bailey

Jamaican authorities have escalated efforts to apprehend 30-year-old Kerrin Bailey, alias “Bones,” who remains at large following a deadly November 2025 shooting incident in St. Andrew. The Kingston East Police Division has issued a renewed public appeal for information regarding Bailey’s whereabouts, emphasizing his status as a primary person of interest in the case.

The violent episode unfolded on November 13th at approximately 8:30 PM in the Jack Vale community of Bull Bay. Local residents reported hearing explosive gunfire originating from a residential property, prompting immediate emergency response. Law enforcement personnel arriving at the scene discovered two gunshot victims—a male and female—both suffering from critical injuries.

Emergency medical services transported both individuals to a nearby medical facility, where 28-year-old truck operator Rai-Ronaldo Fry was declared deceased upon arrival. The female victim received urgent treatment and was admitted in stable condition, subsequently undergoing recovery procedures.

Following comprehensive investigation, police identified Bailey as a central figure in the shooting incident and officially listed him as a wanted individual. Investigators have disclosed that Bailey’s last confirmed residence was located on Talmania Avenue in the Harbour Heights sector of Kingston 17. Surveillance operations indicate he frequently visits various locations across St. James Parish, alongside regular appearances in Bull Bay and Harbour View districts.

Law enforcement officials are strongly urging Bailey to voluntarily surrender at the Elletson Road Police Station without further delay. The public assistance hotlines include direct connections to the Elletson Road Police Station (876-928-1261/1262), the National Intelligence Bureau (811), Crime Stop (311), and all local police precincts.
