Police are warning party goers that they could face criminal charges if they continue to follow, very much the lyrics of Grenadian singer, Hollis \u201cMr Killa\u201d Mapp to \u201cRun With It\u201d.<\/p>

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

Mapp\u2019s 2019 song for the Carnival celebrations here has literally led to persons virtually picking up anything when the song is being played, including tents, coolers and chairs belonging to others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBased on that when the song is being played we understand that people go into a frenzy. What we are asking party goers, in your enthusiasm, the song is a nice song and persons are very charged up when that song is playing (but) we are asking partygoers to please be mindful and do not violate the rights of others,\u2019  Assistant Superintendent of Police, Wayne Mystar told reporters.<\/p>

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

\u201cThere are a lot of offences that could stem from some of the actions taking place of being allowed by this particular song,\u201d he added.<\/p>

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

He also reminded patrons that as the country moves into the height of the Carnival celebrations \u201cpermission is still needed for a person to wine on another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cA person who refused (a wine) if they are asked and you continue to wine on that person then you would have committed an offence of battery and assault\u2026so yes, you need permission to do those thing,\u2019 Mystar said.<\/p>

Mapp is among national and international singers contesting the 2019 Fantastic Friday International Soca Monarch schedules for March 1.<\/p>\n
