(Jamaica Gleaner) Residents of Roaring River, Westmoreland, on Monday unearthed what is believed to be the body of 64-year-old Dawn Anderson, a Jamaica-born British woman who went missing shortly after arriving in the island last week.
The body was reportedly found buried near her home.
However, it was not removed by police on Monday night.
“We didn’t want to disturb any evidence, so we have left a team at the location until tomorrow morning when the body will be exhumed,” a member of the Westmoreland police team told The Gleaner.
Anderson’s disappearance reportedly followed a brief stay at a Montego Bay hotel with her 38-year-old husband, Angrea Morrison.
Morrison has also been reported as missing.
On Tuesday, Morrison reportedly contacted his wife’s daughters in the United Kingdom, telling them that Anderson had disappeared after he dropped her off at a beach park in Negril to meet with a client.
He reportedly said when he returned to pick her up, she was gone.
Anderson had made a name for herself by selling clothing on the beaches of Negril, frequently appearing on Morrison’s TikTok page as she showcased her goods.
