  2. Communities can have neighbourhood watch groups and make certain they are functioning as for the authorities they need to install cameras at certain points in order to track folks who are committing crimes and stop the lip service we usually get, that would make a huge difference

  3. SMH. This is deeply concerning. Our elderly citizens deserve to feel safe in their own homes, yet these recent incidents show how vulnerable they can be. I believe they are being targetted for no reason. It’s crucial that authorities step up patrols and community support, while families and neighbors remain vigilant. Protecting our seniors should be a top priority no one should live in fear in their golden years.

  4. They deserve respect and safety, and the authorities must prioritize their protection. However, I just can’t stomach the fact that someone will target these people.

  5. And in the meantime the Prime Minister’s focus is on the Jolly Beach Resort investment scheme and the return of the Most Honourable Harold Lovell, instead of addressing the rising home invasions of our elderly (as well as other crime ridden RECIDIVISM).

    What really gets Gaston Browne’s immediate attention is ALWAYS anything to do with finance and trying to destroy any viable opposition.

    This man is a contemptuous SLUBBERDEGULLION, who doesn’t give a jot about the worries and wherewithal of Antiguans.

  6. The government should get solar powered streetlight with camera combination out of china to replace all streetlights system and help the police curtail crime.

  8. @Eldread what purpose does solar lights serve during the day when the sun is high in the sky?
    Shoot, injure the lowlife bastards even with a water pistol loaded with acid and aim for their face. It’s now or never..
