**** LATEST UPDATE ON ONEIL****

***Update 5/12/10***

While preliminary investigations into the Edwards attack have suggested that the motive behind the attack could be robbery, detectives involved in the investigation are now in the process of apprehending the suspects they believe are responsible.

"We have been working on some strong leads, which have so far led us to the recovery of the artiste's cellular phone which was robbed from him," the Area 4 crime officer, Deputy Superintendent Michael Hugh Phipps, told The Gleaner yesterday.

The entertainer was shot several times while attempting to enter his home in Duhaney Park, St Andrew, early Monday morning. Up to yesterday afternoon, he was still hospitalised in critical condition.

In the meantime, the internal car park of the Kingston Public Hospital (KPH) was transformed into an emotional, church-like scene.
