Residents urged to look out for displaced criminals

Despite boasting a low crime rate, which is probably the lowest islandwide, the police in Portland are cautioning residents to be on the lookout for displaced criminals.

Police sources said they are well aware that criminals are now seeking a safe haven in rural parishes to rekindle their criminal activity, having been displaced from sections of west Kingston.

too comfortable

The Portland police have picked up more than six persons of interest from Kingston and St Catherine in Mill Bank, and have handed them over to the authorities.

Against that background, the police are warning Portlanders not to get too comfortable, but instead to be on the look out for strange persons and suspicious activities, which could derail the peace and tranquility of the parish.

eight murders

Last year, Portland recorded eight murders and just four have been recorded since January.

Meantime the police is advising residents, who may have sensitive information, to come forward and share it with them so that they will be able to act decisively.

Since the incursion in west Kingston by members of the security forces, residents in Port Antonio and its surroundings have reported seeing strange faces in their areas, especially at nights.
