A policeman reportedly shot and killed his spouse before turning the gun on himself in a suicide attempt in St Mary last night.

The incident occurred about 10:20 p.m. in the Essex community.

Reports are that the constable, who is assigned to the St Andrew North police division, used his Glock service pistol to fatally shoot 21-year-old teaching assistant D'Johnnay Graham.

He then allegedly inflicted a gunshot wound to his own head.

The constable remains under police guard at a hospital.

The Richmond police are investigating.
