St. John\u2019s, Antigua and Barbuda, Monday, December 1, 2025<\/p>

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

The Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda conducted a series of coordinated Snap Vehicle Check Points (VCPs), mobile patrols, and search warrant operations across several communities as part of ongoing crime-prevention and national security enhancement efforts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Sunday, November 30, police carried out multiple Snap VCPs around the city, during which several vehicles were stopped and searched. One motorist was arrested on Independence Drive for dangerous driving and taken into custody at the St. John\u2019s Police Station for further investigation.<\/p>

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

Simultaneously, extensive mobile patrols were conducted in several communities with special emphasis on business establishments, government buildings, and schools. During the patrols, a search warrant was executed at a residence in Cassada Gardens, resulting in the arrest of a 19-year-old male on suspicion of forgery. Police seized a mobile phone, a flash drive, and a computer. These items, along with the suspect, were transported to the St. John\u2019s Police Station to assist further investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In another incident, a male suspect was arrested in St. John\u2019s on suspicion of robbery. Police conducted a search of his person and recovered a glue gun concealed in a piece of cloth. He was taken into custody as investigations remain ongoing.<\/p>

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

The Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda remains committed to maintaining a safe and secure environment through proactive policing, including regular foot and mobile patrols. Members of the public are encouraged to continue supporting the efforts of the police by reporting suspicious activity.<\/p>
