KINGSTON, Jamaica (Map, News) - Jamaican police say they have charged reggae singer Luciano with harboring a fugitive who shot and wounded three patrolmen while holed up inside the Grammy-nominated musician's home last week.
Police Superintendent McArthur Sutherland said the 44-year-old Rastafarian was charged Monday and released after posting bail.
