This day in music history.

September 11, 1987, Peter Tosh is shot and killed by three men during a robbery at his home in Kingston, Jamaica. Only one (Dennis Lobban) of the three killers was caught. Peter was actually Lobbans friend and had helped him find work after a long jail sentence and had allowed him to stay at his house for a period of time. The three came in demanding money and when Tosh told them that he did not have any they shot him. Then they shot the other six people that were in the house, four of them died. In a interview Peter gave the year that he died he said "Vampires don't come out and bite your neck anymore. They cause...Something destructive to happen that blood will spill and those invisible vampires will get their meals" . Peter was an original member of Bob Marleys band The Wailers he also had a very successful solo carrier and he was awarded the Grammy for Best Reggae Performance in 1987 for the album "No Nuclear War".
