WICB director involved in ugly fist-fight

WICB director Paul Campbell (the same man who used the JCA credit card for personal expenses) was involved in an ugly fist-fight last night where he is accused of punching and kicking Jamaica cricket association secretary Ian Browne over a voter list disagreement.   Browne reported the matter to Jamaica police and is now at the University hospital for x-rays to an injured arm.   During the melee, Campbell allegedly said he was going to kill Browne.  The incident happened at Sabina Park last night.
