The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS) reported that, just after 7:35pm on Wednesday, August 17, police and other emergency services were dispatched by the 9-1-1 Communication Centre to a report of a two-vehicle collision that took place along the Esterley Tibbetts Highway, West Bay.
One of the vehicles, a Toyota Mark X, had four occupants while the other, a Honda Accord, had two occupants. Both vehicles were extensively damaged and the road was partially closed for a period of time as investigators and officers from the Cayman Islands Fire Service cleared the roadway.
The occupants of the Toyota Mark X were all transported to the Cayman Islands Hospital by ambulance where they were treated by the attending doctors for what appeared to be non-life-threatening-injuries, and later discharged.
The driver of the Honda Accord, a 25-year-old-woman of Bodden Town, was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of alcohol and careless driving. She was transported to the Cayman Islands Detention Centre where a breath test was administered, which showed a reading of 0.184.
The collision is being investigated by the Traffic and Roads Policing Unit with the RCIPS. Investigators are encouraging anyone with information regarding this collision to call the Traffic and Roads Policing Unit at 649-6254 or the George Town Police Station at 949-4222. Anonymous tips may also be submitted through the RCIPS Confidential Tip-line at 949-7777 or via the RCIPS website at https://www.rcips.ky/submit-a-tip.

He is regarded as one of the top entertainers in dancehall music today but did you know that before entering into a life of music this artiste had other ambitions?
Can you guess the artiste?
A one-minute video posted on social media showing a young student on a junior school challenge quiz programme speaking about his plans to take a totally different career path has left some fans surprised.
Other social media users were left asking questions as they would, later on, come to witness the entertainer growing up to lay down a new set of rules in the music industry.
“Who would have thought,” said one social media user after watching the video.
Another user said even though the artiste took a different path, certainly, his ability to deliver thought-provoking lyrics must have come from the curricular activities that he was involved in as a student. Also, there were hints, the artiste, a student at the time, did point out in the video that one of his hobbies was in fact singing. One of the career paths that he said he was aiming for was medicine.
Watch the video below as the artiste, a student at the time, introduces himself and gives his full name.

A major joint police-military operation, which has so far resulted in the seizure of one firearm, is now underway in the St Andrew South Police Division.
The gun, a 9 mm pistol along with nine live rounds and two magazines, was seized at a residence on St Paul’s Lane off Olympic Way in the Waterhouse community.
Acting on information received, the security forces swarmed the area and have been combing the yard with members of the Canine Division as they believe more guns are buried there. The cops disclosed that the gun recovered had been buried “five feet in the ground”.
“We are going to find the weapons hidden, wherever they are in the St Andrew South division,” Deputy Superintendent Coleridge Minto, operations officer for the St Andrew South Police Division, told Loop News.
“I want to highlight the challenges faced as law enforcement, the criminals in these places, the men are hiding weapons in some ingenious ways. We are going after them, we are utilising technology, utilising the Canine and we have members of the Search Centre that assist us from time to time,” he added.
No arrests have so far been made.
Earlier this week, the police did a series of night-time snap raids across three police divisions.
In one raid, the police recovered a Smith & Wesson firearm with 17 rounds on Mannings Hill Road in St Andrew, and one man was arrested in connection with this find.
In other raids, a submachine gun was seized in the McVickers Lane area of Spanish Town, St Catherine, and a shotgun was seized in the Swamp Lane area of Bog Walk, also in St Catherine.

C’est sur le site de la Pointe Faula que nous avons rencontré les organisateurs du Baccha Festival mercredi. Trois jours après la clôture du plus gros rendez-vous des vacances, toutes les équipes travaillent d’arrache-pied pour démonter les scènes, nettoyer le site et tout remettre en état après deux jours d’effervescence et d’une fréquentation exponentielle. Gilles, Karl et Gaël mettent la main à la pâte, et entre deux tâches, se confient concernant « l’après Baccha ».
Cette 7e édition du Baccha Festival aura marqué les esprits.

On Monday, August 15, 2022, the Community Relations Branch (CRB) of the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force hosted the opening ceremony of its Youth Camp Called “Camp Toys (Teaching Our Youth Survival)” 2022.
The annual youth camp is aimed at providing educational and recreational activities for “at-risk” youth. Some of the activities are; lectures on Conflict Resolution, attire, proper conduct, dangers of drug usage, sexual offenses, good touch bad touch, public speaking, and self-confidence.
Movie night, Games night, football, cricket, daily exercises, compound, and dorm cleaning.
The expectations are that the participants would have learned skills and gain knowledge that would contribute to them becoming upstanding citizens, making choices that would help them live a crime-free life, and that they will impart their newly gained knowledge to their peers and family, thus making their community safer and better for young people.
This year’s camp focused on youth from the southern communities of Soufriere and Choiseul.
The Community Relations Branch (CRB) of the Royal Saint Lucia Police Force would like to thank National Lotteries Authorities, SSDF, LUCELEC, Ministry of Education and by extension, the Choiseul Secondary School, and the Commissioner, Executive staff, and fellow officers of The Royal Saint Lucia Police Force for making this camp a success.
The camp will conclude on Friday, August 19, 2022.
