Denfield Bowen – A Casualty of “Gaza” Gang War?
posted (May 4, 2015)
Where is Denfield Bowen? And is he dead? The 27 year old Plues Street resident left home on Thursday at 5:20 in the evening and has not been found yet. Today, in a mildly bizarre coincidence, both police and members of the George Street Gang were looking for him in the area behind Jane Usher Boulevard - which is where street information said his body was thrown.

Information suggests that Bowen may have been killed as the result of a deep internal rift within the George Street Gang - which all started after Mark Medina was killed last Sunday, presumably by one of his own. Medina was closely linked with the George Street gang and his friends believe he was lured to his death by someone from within the gang.

That leads to Denfield Bowen - who - according to word on the street - may have gone missing as a consequence of this same internal rivalry.

Searches have been intensive in the "dike" area off Faber's Road - and in the area east of Jane Usher Boulevard near customs.

Bowen left home driving his Mazda Pickup truck wearing a white T shirt with the words, "RIP Kareem Lopez" on the front in red and ROBBERY on the back.

Anyone with any clues as to his whereabouts can call -800-922-tips.

But that's not the only consequence of the George Street gang rivalry. Brian Brown - who is considered a senior figure in the Gang was burnt this weekend - reportedly as a consequence also of gang warfare. He is under heavy police guard in the KHMH recovering from those burn wounds. Word is that elements of his own gang suspect him in the Denfield Bowen disappearance.

Coming up a little later in the news - you'll hear from Denfield Bowen's family.
