Tributes penned as Yank Boss, Kevon Solomon, is shot dead and killed at Trincity Mall car park



Social media personality Kevon Solomon, also known as “Kevon Ottley” and “Yank Boss”, was shot dead in the Trincity Mall car park just after 4.30 p.m. yesterday.


Solomon was killed in his car in front of several people who were heading into or leaving the busy mall.


He had achieved a measure of popularity on TikTok for one of his short videos, titled “Miss Grippy”, which also spawned a song called “Miss Grippy with the good grip”.


One woman in the Detour clothing store said: “As I hear them shots, I ran from the window because I thought they would have been able to shoot through the glass.”


Another man said he and his girlfriend had just walked out to the car park after viewing The Little Mermaid at the cineplex, when he saw the “murder scene”.


He pointed to his car that was parked near Solomon’s Chevy Cruze.


“Police said I can move, but I want to see what is going on,” he said.


There were many other onlookers who said they were shocked the killer had shot Solomon in daylight hours in the middle of a busy mall car park. Police said as Solomon drove onto the compound and was parking his Chevy Cruze in an area near Detour clothing store and Sports and Games, he was approached by a gunman.


Police said as Solomon was about to get out of the car, the gunman opened fire, killing him on the spot. As the gunmen escaped, passersby stopped to take video footage of the bullet-riddled car, as Solomon slumped over bleeding in the driver’s seat. On social media, the Tik Tok star and comedian promoted Fairy on the Ferry 2 – Come Sail in Pride, a boat ride that was expected to take place on Sunday night.
