Crime Falls in Antigua and Barbuda, Says Police Commissioner
What a joke this is to the people.
Can tell that you dont read! The police press conference was held BEFORE the robbery occurred
The top cop have to report what they gave him to report. Another ass kisser
People in Antigua tief nf
Like he was waiting for him???
Bring your STATS to the public, Mr. Commissioner AND/OR idle pot-stirrers or just SHUT THE HELL UP! Tired of your BS!
That area has been sketchy for a while now. Not surprised, sadly.
Hope no one was hurt. Things are getting way too bold out here.
Where exactly at Point Wharf? I pass there almost every day.
Sad to say but I don’t even feel safe walking around in daylight anymore.
Was it a business or someone just passing through that got robbed?
SMH… Another day in Antigua
This is why small vendors and workers are nervous going out early or staying late.
Wish they’d give more details when these things happen
Honestly, We need more patrols down there, especially at night.
Again???🤦♀️
These crimes are getting too frequent. Authorities need to step up.
Hope they catch who did it. People need to feel secure again.
That was a known person carrying money it seems . Maybe it was not money after all?? But they said money to keep it quiet what they were carrying. Just maybe.
