A section of King Street between Water Lane and Harbour Street, in downtown Kingston, is now blocked by police investigators probing an attack on a businessman said to be related to one of the island’s leading political figures.

Initial reports are that the businessman was at premises on King Street early this morning, when two men entered through a window and attacked him.

They reportedly beat him repeatedly before escaping with a cellular phone, an undetermined quantity of cash and other items.

The businessman has since been admitted to hospital.

He was robbed and beaten. This is typical of the state of the nations's security! Minister of National Security friends then Prime Minister's family ... who is next? The GG family?

[Islandman]

Or maybe a big time businessman. Looks like nobody is safe anymore. You might live in a gated community but you have to come out some time. Fortunately he was not killed.

Bwoy things stay a way.

[Bricktop]

I am glad it is happening to them...they are reaping what they sowed...

[Islandman]

That is harsh. Come Bricktop do better than that.

[Bricktop]

Politicians and their family need to feel it...or they will continue with inaction...everybody else gets robbed...

[Sir X]

Agreed Brick , they will not act until dem mumma, puppa, bredda, aunty cousin, son and daughta feel it, dis elitist political economic shits tem is coming to an end .dem suh cold I doubt they will act if they feel it (personally) it affi touch dem loved one.

The colonial trick reaping what it was meant to sow, divsion and blood letting.

Not happy that anyone gets beaten, robbed, killed whatever. But is seem like the cops get off dem rasz when politicians or dem fellow officers get victimised.
