MERE HOURS AFTER Attorney General Adriel Brathwaite expressed concern about a spate of shootings in The Ivy, St Michael, there was yet another burst of gunfire.
Now, following this latest incident on Monday night, Acting Assistant Commissioner of Police in charge of crime, Erwin Boyce, has revealed that lawmen will be targeting the area with a special programme aimed at curbing the illegal activity before more people are injured or someone is killed.
The latest incident occurred around 11:30 p.m. when Karen Jordan, of 1st Ave Skeete’s Road, was liming near her home with about eight friends.
“All I could tell you was that I was out here liming when all I hear is ‘pax, pax’ and I see fellas shooting from round the corner near my sister’s house. All we could do is get up and run,” she said.
