Gunmen shoot at Jamaican lawmaker's bodyguards

KINGSTON, Jamaica (AP) — Authorities in Jamaica say bodyguards for a Parliament member were shot at by gunmen in his gritty district.

The Jamaica Constabulary Force says the two bodyguards for West Kingston lawmaker Desmond McKenzie were not hit in Tuesday’s attack as they waited outside a funeral home where the opposition Jamaica Labor Party legislator held a meeting. The bodyguards apparently returned fire but it is not known if any gunmen were injured.
