The Director of the National Office of Disaster Services (NODS) Philmore Mullin revealed today a number of vandalism acts at Barbuda hurricane shelters in Antigua.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Mullin said this means that some of the shelters will be closed.<\/p>\n

He said the old Barrymore Hotel and the former Nurses Hostel where Barbudans displaced by hurricane Irma reside, have been subject to malicious damage.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

“As we speak now there are several doors that have been broken,” he said adding that the locking devices of fridges have also been broken.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Locks of storeroom doors have also been vandalized, according to Mullin.<\/p>\n

He said this will hasten the move of the residents back to shelters on Barbuda.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

“The numbers will be significantly reduced between now and the end of the month,” he said.<\/p>\n

People with children going to school in Antigua are expected to be among those moving back to the sister isle when the term ends.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

Mullin says two shelters are available\u00a0in Barbuda and a third will be constructed.<\/p>
