The MP for the constituency, JC Hutchinson says at least two of those murdered may have been at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Mr. Hutchinson says the Claremont community is still in shock.
He says there’s speculation concerning what may have prompted the quadruple killing.
Police sources say members of the feared Stone Crusher gang from the neighboring parish of St James are believed to be behind the killing of the four men.
