Addressing the Crisis
With a spate of shootings rocking western Jamaica, Minister Chang reassured the public that the situation is not out of control, but acknowledged that it will take time and collaboration to bring peace back to the region. He emphasized the need for support from law-abiding citizens in the fight against crime.
“The police are making progress, but it will take some time. There are too many young men and too many guns available … and too many young men who are willing to kill their friends,” added Chang.
Seeking Justice
Superintendent Andrew Nish, the newly appointed police commander for Hanover, vowed to pursue the perpetrators relentlessly and bring them to justice. He promised a crackdown on criminal activities and a commitment to safeguarding the residents of Hanover.
“I can promise the people of Hanover that things will be different under my watch. No criminal will be allowed to undermine the major developments that are taking place in the parish,” Nish said.
A Ray of Hope
In a proactive move, Superintendent Nish and his team made a significant seizure in the Montpelier community, recovering a chrome .45 pistol, 35 9mm rounds of ammunition, a .45 round, and a black Samsung phone believed to contain vital information related to criminal activities. Three individuals were apprehended in connection with the incident.
The residents of Hanover are looking to law enforcement for swift and decisive action to restore peace and security to their communities. The tragic loss of life serves as a stark reminder of the need for unity and vigilance in the face of escalating violence.
