On Thursday, January 19, I got a disturbing calling from a neighbour who cautiously advised me that there are two armed men hiding in the bushes on the side of my neighbour's fence. My neighbour is a business owner and his business is located downstairs of his home.
Within minutes of calling the police, they arrived on the scene coming from different directions. Altogether, there were four police vehicles. They operated very professionally and courteous and assured us of our safety.
The officers operated with great bravery and valour. They ran through the bushes and tactically apprehended two armed men. Kudos must be given to all officers who responded such as PC Ramcharan, PC Blackwell, PC Mahabir from the San Fernando Police Station.
I was unable to get the names of all the officers who responded but I want to publically thank and commend them on a job well done. The incident occurred in Hermitage Village, San Fernando, opposite Palmiste Block 8 around 8.30 pm.
The two men who were apprehended seemed to be intent at robbery, murder and other heinous crimes.
So, special thanks to the San Fernando Police for their quick response and apprehension of the two armed criminals.
