All those occurrences were accidents. We are still the safest destination in the Caribbean
The person fi di shop go OBEYA ALL YOU. SO LOOK FI THE NEW MAD PPL THEM.YOU NEED TO STOP ALL THESE ROBBERIES
I would suggest to Faithful National # 1 to let us get rid of the robbers who dress up in suits and go to work daily put them where they rightfully belong, east of recreation ground and the ragga muffin ones will understand crime doesn’t pay
Reading or looking at news from other Caribbean islands I see a lot of drug involvement and gang crimes, but here in Wadadli no one is safe. Over the past year we’ve witnessed a number of gun crimes, where gun men or man just casually walk into shops and walk off with all the cash and most of these were captured on camera, but to this day unless it was one man going around terrifying the public, we heard of no specific arrest.
Wadadli has become a place where serious crimes are committed and for a month remains in the spotlight, for some we saw quick but doubtful arrest, others just quietly dissapeared never to heard of again.
The strange disappearance of one was hot-hot news and all they found was a burnt vehicle, a female who was missing over thirty years return home big-big news for a while, but to this day it’s still a mystery, Chantel buried and gone still a mystery, woman jumping out of vehicle on back road after just relocating here.
Are these crimes to large for our Detectives and when they arrest anyone with illegal firearm and ammunition are there any leaks as to how they acquired them? Golden Grove couple murdered in their home.
Our press needs to keep pushing for answers.
Carnival coming they want their fete money… 😮💨
