At Mobay airport


Detectives assigned to the Firearms and Narcotics Investigation Division (FNID) have charged two municipal officials following the seizure of approximately 20.5 pounds of cocaine at the airport on Friday, January 16, 2026.

Charged are 40-year-old Trevon Clayton, Chief Financial Officer at the St Ann Municipal Council and resident of Falmouth, Trelawny, and 42-year-old Latoya Hemmings, Senior Managing Accountant at the Trelawny Municipal Council of Spicy Hill, Trelawny.

Reports from FNID state that about midday, Clayton and Hemmings, who were travelling together, checked in for a flight destined for New York. During security screening, the two were accosted and searched, and packages of cocaine were reportedly found in the luggage of both individuals. A sum of US currency was also seized from Hemmings' handbag.

Both were detained, and Clayton later admitted to ingesting cocaine pellets. He was transported to hospital, where he remains under police guard after expelling 82 pellets of cocaine.
