Two gunmen killed a policeman in downtown Kingston, the third law enforcement officer killed in 12 days in Jamaica, police said.
Cpl. Errol Bell, 37, was shot in the head along busy East Street in the capital late Monday.
The killing prompted National Security Minister Peter Phillips to warn police officers across the island that they were being targeted.
Last year, 15 law enforcement officers were slain by gunmen.
