Jamaican Dancer Shot Dead
December 29th, 2008
The Jamaican dancer and choreographer who came up with the dance popular sprinter Usain Bolt used to do to celebrate a win was shot dead at a club in Kingston, Jamaica, reports Reuters. David Alexander Smith, also known as “Ice,” was shot in the head and chest after having an argument with two men. The men then stole his car keys and escaped the scene in his car, according to police. The police say they have no official motive for the shooting. Bolt danced Smith’s dance phenomenon, the “Gully Creeper,” after each win at the Beijing Olympics, where he was very successful. The West Indian nation has seen more than 1,500 people murdered just this year. Jamaica’s murder rate per capita is one of the highest in the world.
