In a statement issued on Monday, the Royal Police Force paid tribute to Patrick’s years of service, noting his significant contribution to policing and public safety across the country.

Commissioner of Police Everton Jeffers extended condolences to Patrick’s family, friends and fellow officers, acknowledging the loss as a difficult moment for the policing community.

Sergeant Patrick’s death marks the end of a distinguished career that spanned generations of policing in Antigua and Barbuda. He leaves behind a legacy of service and commitment that will be remembered by colleagues and the communities he served.
