  1. Police was tipped. You just walk in the bushes on a whim and find eight millions$$ worth of drugs. Nah somebody tipped them.

  2. The Police just don’t go into bushes during their roads patrol unless they were tipped off of any sort of criminal activities, especially Caribbean police. Police officers, please do take us the RO ABLP.

  3. Where there are drugs in this quantities. Violence crimes and murdering followers. Them Cocrane dealers don’t care how the murder families, little children, parents, grandparents All innocent because of a deal gone bad.
    They don’t care – the police officers and customs office all in danger. This is a dangerous road you are on Dominica. Sure this is going to spill over into the other territories. Since Dominica is the major supplier of vegetables , ground provisions and fruits in these parts. Antigua, Montserrat, St.Kits and Nevis , St. Martin, Tórtola and US Virgin Islands food chain is now infiltrated with Drugs and the heavy stuff. This food chain will surely get interrupted.
