  1. Sad, LORD have your way.

    Deepest condolences to the family.

    I pray for comfort to the family and friends

  2. Another senseless killing that may just joined the list of “unsolved in Antigua”
    Condolences to the bereaved families.

  3. This is so sad. I hope the police can solve this rather quickly. My condolences to the grieving families and the community at large

  4. This is another senseless killing of two youths whose lives were cut short for reasons unknown to us at this time. We need to find ways of solving our differences rather than resorting to violence of any kind. My heart goes out to the grieving families at this time.

  5. One MP shouted at another MP ” I have more gang than you, I will deal with you inside and outside”. The other MP laugh …bring your gang and come. All this happening in the Honorable House of Parliament….the youths of this country watching, listening and acting accordingly.

  6. Police ain’t gonna solve shit …. What about the other teenagers who were murdered …. Chupzzzz oooh and ones from years ago … with the technology now come on … lazy ass police

  7. Whats the motive for killing these teens? Retaliation? Jealousy? A trigger happy gunman? Jeffers send your boys on the road to do more stop stil and searches do not use up. Especially after these sound clash, fetes and overall parties..this is ridiculous now.

  8. This is yet another reason why we must get functional cameras installed on our roadways as a matter of urgency. Unlike manual patrols, surveillance cameras operate continuously without breaks, providing consistent surveillance, particularly in high-risk zones and communities. If these murderers got away in a vehicle, cameras at strategic areas could have helped to identify and capture them. The installation of cameras ought to be a national priority at this time.

  9. @ANR where is the Grim Reapers post. Pretending it ain’t happening and trying to hide the truth won’t stop the uzi’s and glocks from barking on the rock.
    Keep reporting and filtering because many more will be dropped off at the undertaker soon.
    @ANR R U CYANT HIDE DE TRUTH ABOUT WAH AH HAPPEN INNA WADADLI.

  10. The government should get solar powered streetlight with camera combination out of china to replace all existing streetlights system and help the police and government solve crimes.

  11. The government….. hmmm they only worry about lining their pockets. They are only in it for themselves, don’t care how many crimes are committed as long as it don’t interfere with their get rich schemes. Innocent children dying for no reason whatsoever and the AG keep telling us that Antigua is safe. 🤔 Safe for who? Him and is crooked friends and comrades? If the government not doing enough to protect the innocent it’s time for us to start protecting ourselves and our families.

  12. WHAT THE HELLL…! ….DRIVE BY SHOOTING? …WH? …WHAT OF MURDER/SUICIDE?

  13. Yet more senseless killings in Antigua. Just the other day (yesterday I believe) I commented on a murder that took place in All Saints and within 36 hours now this drive by shooting of two innocent teenagers.

    I’m truly at a loss for words!

    My condolences to the family and friends of the departed 🙏🏾

    NO MORE LENIENT SENTENCES FOR GUN CRIMES

  14. What nonsense is Gaston Browne talking about courts not giving lengthy sentences? Man take some responsibility!! GO AND GET TO THE SOURCE OF THE GUNS!! Find out who is bringing them in. Certainly it’s not the youths who are firing them. How come any bad youth who wants a gun can get one yet no one can find out who is bringing them in, the route, or anything so they can be stopped.

  15. @ FC.
    I thought GB was your Jesus.

    I know that’s blasphemy, but the way you fools praise this out of touch fool GB, I thought for sure that the future was bright for Antigua.
    “Come Jesus come”..is that the best you got?

    Clueless idiot you are!

  16. What is this place coming to? This is what we call home? Senseless killing of young people? Lord help us

  17. There was no drive by. Thou shall not kill thy self. seems like the Guyanese supermarket he and his friends robbed sometimes ago when one was shot and kill, he manage to escape but little do he know Guyanese Indian jumbie nor play. his Guyanese mother jumbie weak

  18. you need to be reported. You really saw this article and thought this was the best thing to comment. Youre sick and I pray you get help. Any life lost and so young to is a travesty for the family abd the country.

  19. so he killed himself and then her? people always know but never know enough to tell the police. antiguans are sick. Bunch of sick people

  20. she was a nice young girl. she wasnt the target. the 2drilly dude was the target. poor brinri. left on the ground like that.

  21. There have to be houses in the area with active security cameras running. I hope the police already searched the homes in the area for those cameras before the owners erased the footage.

  22. that whole story nah make much sense. so they just roll up on him and his woman s d gunned them down? what’s the motive? so no cctv in the area? antigua.news remember we depend on you all to tell us what the other media houses wont tell us.
