And while the Felix family seems to be caught in a terminal tailspin of violence, it's a frighteningly similar trajectory for the Matura Family. In March, 29 year old Glenford Matura was shot to death in on Amara Avenue; and yesterday afternoon his 18 year old brother was stabbed to death in Ladyville. Police press officer Fitzroy Yearwood says police have found the murder weapon.

"We received information yesterday about 4:15 there about that there was a man on Robin Street, apparently dead. So when police visited the scene they saw the lifeless body of Anthony Matura, 18 Years old. Initial investigation reveals that Matura just exited a bus somewhere around Poinsettia St. and Northern Highway and somebody delivered a single stab would to him. It is believed that Matura ran from that area and he later succumbed to his injury. Police re-visited the scene this morning and did another combing of the area where they recovered what us believed to be the murder weapon which is a large knife."
And even though it happened in the daylight hours, Police have no motive and no suspects for the murder; they say no witnesses are coming forward to volunteer information.
