St Lucia cops investigating gun incident at Skillibeng-headlined show Loop Jamaica

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Jamaica News Loop News

The Royal St Lucia Police Force (RSLPF), during a press conference Wednesday, disclosed that an investigation is underway into an off-duty officer seen on stage with an open-carry firearm at the recent Onyx show, which was headlined by dancehall artiste Skillibeng.

A brief clip circulated over social media featured Skillibeng being trailed by a moonlighting police officer, working as a security guard.

Reports are that the open-carry firearm in the possession of the officer did not come from the armoury of the RSLPF and was, in fact, a prohibited item.

“That particular officer was not part of the approved list signed by the Commissioner of Police,” Assistant Commissioner of Police George Nicholas told the media.

“The commissioner has advised that an investigation be launched into this matter and all the circumstances surrounding the officer being on stage with the firearm will be looked at,” he said.

The officer in question was eventually removed from the stage by ACP Nicholas, who was the senior officer overseeing the event, where the RSLPF is concerned.

Loop News understands that Nicholas was contracted by a registered private security company for the event.

Organisers of the Onyx show, Verve, have since distanced themselves from the incident.

For its part, the entertainment company has acknowledged the impact of the on-stage stunt, which came as a surprise, and has stressed that the safety of patrons was of top priority.

In a statement released following the concert, the promoters noted: “We do recognise that the on-stage optics may have given the wider public a false impression of the event and what we stand for. As such, we wish to apologise for causing any offence to the public. This was by no means intentional.”

The Royal Cayman Islands Police Service (RCIPS) reported that, on Tuesday, October 18, while on patrol off of East End, Cayman Islands Coast Guard officers observed a suspicious vessel entering the channel in East End.

When the Coast Guard vessel attempted to stop the suspicious vessel, the vessel attempted to evade the CG vessel resulting in a short chase.

While trying to evade capture the captain of the suspicious vessel ran the vessel ashore and its three occupants abandoned it and fled onto the shore, where they continued across the main road in the vicinity of Paradise Villas, East End, and escaped into nearby bushes.

The Air Support Unit, Firearms Response Unit, and other officers responded and conducted a search in the area where the persons were last seen, however, the suspects were not located.

Checks of the vessel resulted in the recovery of two firearms, a large amount of ammunition, and over 250lbs of suspected ganja.

The matter is currently under investigation and efforts to locate the men who fled the vessel are ongoing.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Criminal Investigations Department at 949-4222.

The parent who was recorded in a video allegedly assaulting an Ascot High School student in the Portmore area of St Catherine last week has surrendered to the police.

In the recording, a man is punches a girl and sends her sprawling to the ground.

The parent surrendered to the police on Tuesday and was charged with assault occasioning bodily harm.

He was granted bail and will appear in the St Catherine Parish Court in the first week of November to answer to the charge, the police confirmed.

The police did not release the name of the parent.

In the video, which was widely circulated over social media, a woman had earlier confronted the schoolgirl and challenged: Llick her nuh, lick her nuh’, before the man rushed in to deliver the blow that floored the teenager.

Superintendent Hopeton Nicholson, operations officer of the St Catherine South Police, has appealed to parents and guardians to settle disputes without violence.

“We’re beseeching parents and guardians to liaise with school administrators if issues arise with your child at school. The St Catherine South Police Community Safety and Security Branch will continue to provide counselling for all involved in this incident,” Superintendent Nicholson said.

Solid Waste GM asks the public for patience as waste-collection haulers go through downtime to service trucks and equipment

Black Immigrant Daily News

The content originally appeared on: Antigua News Room

Daryl Spencer, the General Manager of the National Solid Waste Management Authority, says that households should see an improvement in their garbage collection in the near future.

Many households in a number of communities have been complaining about the infrequency of their waste collection and that the haulers have not been observing the scheduled days.

Spencer blames the challenges facing the Authority on the fact that a number of the contracted private haulers have dropped out of the system, in addition to ongoing cash-flow problems.

He adds that most of the haulers have taken downtime in order to effect repairs and service their trucks and equipment.

Spencer reports that a meeting was recently held with the private contractors, and the parties have reached a compromise to address the outstanding issues affecting them.

According to the General Manager, the downtime is not unusual. He explains that the Authority and most contractors are working with aging fleets, and waste management is a very rigorous system that can take a toll on the equipment used.

He says the public should not feel that it is being deliberately neglected; and this type of situation can be expected from time to time.

Spencer is, therefore, appealing to the public to exercise patience with the Authority, as it seeks to put the garbage-collection schedule back on track.

He advises households who are still experiencing problems with their waste collection to notify the Authority, so that the matter can be properly addressed.
