Article by TAMEISHA SOBERS

TREMAINE RAHEEM BARROW accidentally shot one man with a gun he was holding for another, and now he is waiting on the court to decide his fate.

Barrow, of Blenman Road, Ellerton, St George, was on trial in the No. 5 Supreme Court for murder yesterday when he pleaded guilty to manslaughter in the killing of Shamar Ifill on June 11, 2014.

The encounter at a football game was revealed when Principal Crown Counsel Anthony Blackman recounted events of the night of June 10, 2014.

Both Barrow and Ifill separately attended a football game in Ellerton. While there, Jamal Pin Up Taylor, a friend of Barrow, asked him to keep a gun for him because he wanted to go to a shop to make a purchase. (TKS)
