An unsafe world, an unsafe space! The crime rate is going up meanwhile officials wants us to believe it’s going down, I guess it’s not a crime if the person doesn’t die…..
NUMBERS don’t lie. You are going by “feelings” and not objectivity.
Attack by three men! Thank God you’re still alive. This world is so tricky, you even have to make sure you don’t have a look alike. Even the quiet ones suffer
Thank God the injury wasn’t life-threatening
At least he is alive. Give thanks
Thank God the wound wasn’t life-threatening. Hope they catch whoever did this soon.”

We are still the safest country in the Caribbean and that is very comforting. Bet any amount of money Faithful National #1 agrees with me
That area needs better lighting and more police presence. Too many incidents lately around Piggotts and Paynters Court
Piggotts again… these violent attacks are becoming too common. Police need to step up patrols in that area
Put down the knives and the guns. Love is the key. Remember your PM told you so
Don’t worry yourself my fellow Antiguans, the Attorney General Steadroy ‘Statsman’ Benjamin will be releasing some more figures again in the foreseeable future informing the gullible that there’s STILL nothing to see here or worry ’bout with criminality.
Wait and see …
