Three suspects are now in police custody in relation to the murder of Montego Bay-based gynaecologist, Dr Barry Dixon.

The three were reportedly taken into custody yesterday afternoon by the Montego Bay police.

Dixon, who is a former Senior Medical Officer at the Cornwall Regional Hospital, was shot by gunmen at his Spring Gardens home in St. James, on September 1.

He died hospital hours later despite doctors working fervently to save his life.

The gunmen reportedly robbed him of some $300,000.
