Two men are expected to be charged this week in connection with the murder of Market Street resident Ricardo Johnson, who was found dead in his home earlier this year, police confirmed yesterday.
Police said investigators recently wrapped up the investigation and are waiting on officials from the Office of the Attorney General to review the file.
The suspects were identified only as young Bahamian men.
Johnson, a 53-year-old mechanic, was discovered in his home by anxious relatives who had not seen him in days, police said.
Officers said Johnson's relatives forced their way into his home on January 23.
Johnson was stabbed multiple times, police said.
Police said previously that Johnson may have been dead for up to three days before he was found.
Johnson's murder was the eighth for the year. The murder count has since swelled to 30.
Police have recently noted an increase in homicides.
On Sunday, police said the partially clothed body of a woman was found in bushes near the entrance to Dignity Gardens, off Carmichael Road.
Superintendent Paul Rolle, who heads the Central Detective Unit, said a girl made the discovery at 10:15 a.m.
Rolle said the woman was partially naked.
He said the body was in an advanced state of decomposition.
Up to yesterday, police were unable to determine the cause of death or the woman's identity.
