St Kitts and Nevis (WINN): Police are confirming media reports of a homicide that reportedly occurred Saturday night in Newtown, St. Kitts.

Editor’s Note
WINN published a news item on our website early Sunday afternoon (Oct 4) that stated police have confirmed a “homicide” in Newton. In fact, police confirmed a “death” in the area and not a homicide. Later on Sunday, a police press release stated that officers were investigating a sudden death in the area. There was no mention of a homicide in that statement. WINN apologies for the error in our earlier publication. A follow-up story on the death in Newtown is on our website. Our newscasts on Sunday and Monday on WINN 98.9 also offered details of the police report.
