Police in Jamaica launch homicide probe into Markham woman s death Adam Carter
Police in Jamaica confirm they are investigating the death of a 43-year-old woman from Markham as a homicide.
Investigators say Latoya Alcindor was killed sometime between Jan. 18 and Jan. 21 inside a guest house in Runaway Bay, which is about 100 kilometres northwest of Kingston, the country s capital. Guests at that location smelled a foul odour and alerted police, who entered the unit and found her body.
Police say Alcindor s body was found with stab wounds and evidence of other trauma. She had been been staying with a man inside the guest house, police say, and he is considered a suspect.
EDMONTON An Ottawa-area fatherâs hope of seeking a life-altering treatment for his son in the U.S. has been dashed in light of the news that the government is considering new measures that would âsignificantly impedeâ Canadians ability to return to the country due to COVID-19. Malcolm Watson, whose son suffers from an extreme case of selective mutism, is temporarily abandoning his plan to seek treatment at a world-renowned treatment centre in Pennsylvania over concerns his sonâs condition wouldnât fall under the parameters of essential travel. âWe just donât know where else to turn. I am still researching options in Ontario, still doing everything I can. But more and more our options are dwindling,â Watson told CTVNews.ca by phone Sunday.
Last Updated Monday, January 25, 2021 5:03AM EST A 43-year-old Markham woman who was murdered in Jamaica last week is being remembered by her friends as a loving person who championed her Caribbean culture. Tashia Antoine described her god-sister and friend Latoya Alcindor as a vibrant person, a caring mother to her two daughters, and a prominent member of the Caribbean community in the Toronto area. She was seen as a cultural ambassador, where she promoted Caribbean culture to Toronto and the world, Antoine said in an interview with CTV News. She promoted Caribbean culture her entire life, and she was always a part of the Caribana parade since she was a young child.
