Tutsi Busted with Unlicensed Glock and Live Ammunition

Following the murder of Giovanni Augustine on Saturday afternoon, police on mobile patrol on Faber’s Road Extension pursued a pickup truck that caught their attention.  The vehicle was being followed until it came to a halt on Madam Liz Avenue.  When the officers approached the driver, they discovered that he was Darrel “Tutsi” Usher, son of Minister of State and Port Loyola Area Representative Gilroy Usher Sr.  Before they were able to conduct a search on the pickup, Usher declared possession of two firearms, a twelve gauge shotgun, as well as nine millimeter Smith and Wesson pistol for which he was able to produce licenses.  When they proceeded to search the vehicle, they discovered a Glock 19 pistol with a magazine containing four live rounds hidden beneath the front passenger seat.  Usher could not provide a license for the firearm and was taken into police custody where he is facing charges for kept and unlicensed firearm and ammunition.  In the wake of the deadly Curassow Street shooting, it was believed that Usher was a person of interest; however, as we’ve reported in our lead story, Kareem Beeks is the only suspect that has been charged in respect of that murder.
