A police officer is currently undergoing treatment for gunshot wounds at the country’s main hospital after being shot multiple times in Potters Village during the early hours of this morning.
The officer, identified as Trevor Giddings, is a 30-year-old resident of Buckley Line. Reports indicate that he was engaged in private duties at a Jamaican party in the area when the incident occurred.
According to witnesses, two gunmen opened fire, striking Officer Giddings several times. The circumstances surrounding the shooting are still under investigation, and authorities are working to gather more information.
As of now, the officer’s condition remains unknown. Updates will be provided as more details become available.
Even the officers. It’s been a weekend in Antigua huh. The ones that are suppose to protect us are the ones being attacked…. Hmmmm
This is for the officer Karim who keeps getting his case pushed back. I hate officers so much, that I’m hoping he dies. And Antigua Surf you might as well shut up. Are the police protecting us? Cause I don’t see any protection
Why would Any right thinking person wish someone dead
at a Jamaican party? that’s part of the action..sorry about that bro, but it has to do with the company you keep.

This sounds like a Jamaican love. Gaston needs ro ensure these people aren’t in our country. Those good ones who are already there then no problem but no more new entry
Kiss my teeth. Anriguans are causing more trouble than Jamaicans. The Caribbean is a melting pot. We are one people. Yet we discriminate against the Jamaicans and Spanish people who are the ones nor lazy enough to clean antiguans homes and build their Barnes. Ungrateful people. Donr blame us. Blame the evil spirit that is hovering over this land because of the ills of the leaders.
Ahhh so he was moonlighting at the time of the incident. I thought they had clamped down on that?
Then again money don’t fight and like all of us even police officers need a side hustle too.
Hope he pulls through
I pray the officer pulls through
The gun crime situation in Antigua needs to be placed under control. I see the police doing their best to try to curb it. The question is will residents help? Without the help of the people they police are fighting a losing battle. For every gun found in the hands of criminals someone’s child, father, aunty, husband ….is at risk. This is getting too serious. We need to do better
Either someone was out to get this officer or it could be a case of just being in the wrong place. I saw the video and it looks like he was hit in the face. Guns are available like sand by the bayside. Pittyful.
Sad days in our dear land of Antigua and Barbuda
