Police Public Relations Officer Frankie Thomas is urging residents of Villa to come forward with any information that could help investigators following the senseless killing of two teenagers.

Seventeen-year-old Brianna Clark and Omari Lewis were shot and killed in what has shocked the community and intensified concerns about rising gun violence.

Thomas made a direct appeal to residents, stressing that silence only protects those responsible and delays justice for the victims and their grieving families.

    We are still in the month of March 2026, just the third month of the year, and the authorities are already dealing with eight homicide investigation cases for the year 2026. For a small country, this is too much.
    As of March 26, 2026, the current rate is 8.0 per 100,000 people. In 2025: 11.68 per 100,000 (based on 11 total murders reported).
    To find the Homicide Rate the formula is: Number of Homicides divided Total Population times 100,000.
