Stop and Search Operations yield further results
Yesterday, a series of proactive stop-and-search operations conducted across various communities resulted in significant arrests by the Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda.
At approximately 7:00 p.m., authorities apprehended four male individuals from Villa on charges of Unlawful Possession of a Firearm along with multiple rounds of ammunition.
In a related operation, another male suspect from Ottos was taken into custody for possessing cannabis. These arrests underscore the police force’s commitment to tackling illegal firearms and drugs, integral components of their broader strategy to enhance community safety and uphold law and order on the island.
Authorities have consolidated all seized items—including the firearm, ammunition, and cannabis—and are currently investigating the circumstances surrounding these incidents. The police continue to emphasize the vital role of community cooperation in combatting crime.
Residents are encouraged to share any relevant information by contacting the Criminal Investigations Department at 462-3913 or Crime Stoppers at 800-TIPS (8477).PS (8477).
The police are working real hard with cleaning up the streets. And if these criminals would begin speaking we would know the heads behind these crimes
Cheers to the journey of a cleaner, safer Antigua!
We certainly can’t say now that the police are not working
Continue to do a great work. Bring them dirty boys in their cages where they can no longer frustrate us
Good job!

These stop and searches seem to be yielding good jobs. Keep up the good work
Glad to see proactive policing.
