Rowe was taken to hospital where he was pronounced dead.

It is reported that Ashley Williams was in the Cayman Islands on a work permit when officials in the British Overseas Territory found out she was a person of interest in a murder case.

Her visa was revoked, and she was taken into custody on New Year’s Day.  She was deported to Jamaica and handed over to local authorities on January 5.

Thompson was apprehended in Manchester after being identified as a person of interest by the police in December.
