I just found the following item on "Cyber Sleaze" which suggests that they both were involved in the incident. Wonder why no one mentioned that Bono was there? " * UPDATE: U2 singer BONO has spoken of his terror when police opened fire on his family while they were on holiday in Jamaica. He told friends last night, "I honestly thought we were all going to die." Bono was with his wife ALI and their children JORDAN, six, and three-year-old EVE, when police started shooting at their boat which was taking them back to shore from a seaplane. Police mistook the family for drug runners. The singer dived to the deck to protect his family. He says, "It was absolutely terrifying. I was convinced we'd all be killed. The kids are still very upset from their nightmare ordeal, but it was only by the grace of God we survived." U2 bass player ADAM CLAYTON, JIMMY BUFFETT and ISLAND RECORDS boss CHRIS BLACKWELL were also on the plane. " The URL for Cybersleaze is http://metaverse.com/vibe/sleaze/ the day was Jan 18, 1996.
