Luciano charged over fugitive shoot out
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 31 March 2009
So when police said last week that Grammy-nominated reggae star Luciano was not suspected of harbouring a fugitive who was involved in a shoot out at the singer’s home, and would therefore not be charged, what they meant was Luciano was suspected of harbouring a fugitive who was involved in a shoot out at the singer’s home, and would therefore be charged.
As previously reported, murder suspect Andrew Senior locked himself in Luciano’s home in Kingston, Jamaica last week, leading to a one hour stand off between him and police and a shoot out that resulted in three police officers being injured. At the time it wasn’t clear if Luciano was at the property during the stand off, or whether he had any connection to Senior, though police confirmed they had questioned him.
Now Jamaican police have confirmed they charged the singer with harbouring a fugitive yesterday. He was released after posting bail. No comment from Luciano’s people as yet regarding the charges.
