The 23-year-old “Champion Boy” hit maker, real name Earlan Bartley reported to the Area 4 Headquarters, Harman Barracks in Vineyard Town, Kingston Thursday morning. Alkaline was then transferred to the Criminal Investigation Branch headquarters shortly after midday and has since completed multiple rounds of questioning as cops continue to probe the murder of Rohan “Head” Morris.
On Tuesday the Criminal Investigation Branch of the Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) released a statement saying Alkaline was wanted for questioning in relation to the murder of Morris as cops believe the deejay can assist with the investigation. 28-year-old Morris was shot more than 15 times at his home in Oaks Garden, St Andrew last month allegedly beside his 5-year-old daughter.
