Dead: Rosmarisf Revolledo Torres also called “Mary” and wanted, Linden Fordyce

Twenty-six-year-old Linden Fordyce also called ‘Blacka’ on One Mile, Wismar Linden is wanted by the police for the murder of 28-year-old Rosmarisf Revolledo Torres also called “Mary” who was shot dead during an altercation at Mowasie Landing on Friday.

It was reported that on the day in question, Torres’ sister, her two friends, and a male, Andrew, were consuming alcohol next to the deceased’s shop.

At the time, the suspect who also operates a shop in the area was engaged in a heated argument with his 18-year-old girlfriend. In trying to make peace, one of Torres’ Andrew went over to the suspect’s house and asked him to behave himself.

Torres also spoke with the suspect about his behaviour, but this angered him.

This resulted in a heated argument between Torres and the suspect. At the time of the argument, Torres was carrying a cutlass in her hands and she started to fire chops at the suspect but missed.

In retaliation, the suspect picked up several pieces of bricks and started to pelt Torres and the others.

Torres along with her 12-year-old daughter, sister, and two friends escaped in some bushes about 250 feet away from the landing.  The suspect reportedly climbed onto a motorcycle and went after them.

Police stated that Torres’s daughter told investigators that the suspect, who was armed with a suspected pump-action shotgun, discharged three rounds in their direction during which her mother and another woman, Eliannys Perozo, received injuries.

Her mother, she stated, fell on her back and became motionless. Torres’s sister reportedly made it back to the landing and raised an alarm. The matter was immediately reported to the Police via a 911 call.

Upon their arrival, Police ranks found Torres lying on her back with gunshot injuries to her upper left back, left ribs, and upper left thigh. On the hand, Perozo sustained a wound to her left side head, and three wounds to her right shoulder.

The scene was processed during which three pairs of slippers, a silver chain, three beer bottles, a small pair of scissors, and a red head tie were found.

Torres and Perozo were taken to the Mahdia District Hospital where Torres was pronounced dead. Perozo was treated and admitted as a patient in a stable condition.

The Police are asking anyone with information that can lead to the arrest of Linden Fordyce to contact them on telephone numbers 225-6940, 2258196, 227-1140, 911 or the nearest police station.

Jamaican drowns, brother missing after jumping off ‘Jaws’ bridge in US Loop Jamaica

A Jamaican man, Tavaris Bulgin, of Palmers Cross, Clarendon, drowned and his brother, Tavaughn, is missing and feared dead after a late-night jump off a popular bridge in Martha’s Vineyard in Massachusetts, United States on Sunday.

According to the Vineyard Gazette, an extensive recovery effort for a second man was halted on Monday after what it said was a late-night group jump off the big bridge on Beach Road in Oak Bluffs.

Oak Bluffs Police Chief Jonathan Searle said nine people jumped off the bridge late Sunday night.

“Two of the nine got into trouble swimming. The two were in their 20s,” Searle said. He told MV Times that since a death occurred, the investigation will be taken over by the district attorney’s office.

Loop News understands that Tavaris and Tavaughn are the sons of the Reverend Keith Bulgin, the pastor of the Palmers Cross New Testament Church of God.

Edgartown Police Lieutenant Chris Dolby said police received a call around 11pm Sunday, stating that a group of swimmers had jumped off the bridge and alerting police to “swimmers in distress”.

“Two did not remain with the group and that group called in that they have two missing friends,” he said.

Tavaris was found at 6:20 Monday morning, Searle said. The chief said the search radius includes all of Sengekontacket Pond and stretched several miles offshore.

“It’s extremely large,” he said.

Reports are that within minutes of the call, Oak Bluffs and Edgartown rescue boats were searching the area and soon after helicopters, boats and divers conducted multiple searches inside and outside of Sengekontacket Pond. Marker buoys were dropped and followed and their paths and locations searched multiple times, according to Oak Bluffs Fire Chief Nelson Wirtz.

Shoreline searches were conducted on foot and by UTV along all the northern-facing shoreline from the small bridge to a bend in the road as well as the pond side.

About 11am, responders announced that they were “calling off the main body of the search”, Chief Wirtz said.

A Coast Guard cutter will remain offshore until later Monday afternoon or evening.

“At this point, because of tide changes, the victim could be on either side” of the bridge, Chief Wirtz said.

“It is a recovery, so we take things slowly and methodically … hopefully we can give the family some closure soon,” he said. “It’s really is up to the visibility and tides.”

The bridge, popularly known as the Jaws bridge because of its role in the movie filmed on the island, is a popular spot for jumping despite signs telling people not to jump.

Cudjoe: Our voices in Cabinet have helped Tobago

Black Immigrant Daily News

Tobago

Tobago West MP Shamfa Cudjoe –

Tobago West MP Shamfa Cudjoe has defended her representation as well as that of Tobago East MP Ayanna Webster-Roy, after criticism from THA Chief Secretary Farley Augustine.

At Emancipation Day celebrations, Augustine said the Prime Minister and the Tobago MPs should be pushing for longer opening hours at the ANR Robinson International Airport so that Caribbean Airlines Ltd (CAL) could increase its flights to the island.

The THA, hoteliers and other stakeholders have long been clamouring for CAL to increase the number of domestic flights, particularly during peak travel periods, such as Easter, the July-August vacation and the upcoming October Carnival.

Addressing the issue on the Tobago Updates morning show on Monday, Cudjoe took umbrage at Augustine’s statement and argued that the island has benefited from their influence in the PNM-led government.

Cudjoe is the Miister of Sport and Community Development and Webster-Roy is a Minister in the Office of the Prime Minister.

Cudjoe said: “It is because of our representation and our voices at the Cabinet that Tobago has seen this development that it has seen over the past seven years.”

On the issue of CAL and the airbridge, Cudjoe said it’s a matter of resources.

“Of course we would like a flight to go back and forth every 30 minutes, but the government is already subsidising CAL to the tune of $800 million per year and the interisland airbridge at $100 million per year.

“CAL has been in the red for as long as we know. In addition to that, CAL, like other airline companies, (is)coming out of this whole covid19 situation.”

She said currently the government continues to subsidise seats on the airbridge, as “every time you sit down in a seat, you pay your $300 return, the government is paying an additional $400 on that ticket – every single time.”

She said in the last two weeks of July, CAL had moved at least 6,000 people back and forth on the airbridge.

Cudjoe said financial resources will affect interisland transportation, noting that the country already benefits from free education and healthcare as well as subsidised electricity and fuel.

Saying there are currently seven ATRs available to TT, three to four of which are being used between the islands. CAL, she said, is not a national airline, but more of a regional airline.

“Yes, we lease some of the jets. People would say, ‘Well, put on a jet.’

“We don’t own the jets, we lease the jets, and then it’s not good for the jets to fly that short distance – we know that damages the jets and we have to pay extra monies and so on to the people we’re leasing the jet from.

“So yes, of course we would like to have hundreds of ATRs going back and forth, but based on our financial situation, it’s not possible at this point in time, alongside all the other expenses.”

She added: “We continue to make the investment in the domestic airbridge, utilise the two ferries and improve our airport. Make that investment so that we can attract more airlines.

“You can’t not want the airport and development and want more flights and more tourism development at the same time. It is a sacrifice that we have to make right now, and we as government, we continue to invest in Tobago’s development.”
