A high-powered AK-47, an Uzi Machine Gun and two 9-mm pistols were seized by the police during a raid in Silver Lake on Saturday.
Cocaine, marijuana and ammunition were also seized in the raid which took place at around 6:00 am.
That information was revealed by Head of the Drug Squad Department, Inspector John Carbon, during a press conference held at the Police Headquarters conference room on Monday.
According to Carbon, the search was conducted by members of the Drug Squad, the SSU and task force resulted in the seizure of the following items: 24 rounds of 40-calibre ammunition, 30 rounds of 9-mm ammunition, one AK-47 magazine, one Uzi Submachine magazine and three 9-mm magazines.
2.135 kilograms of cocaine, with an estimated street value of $57, 000 and 2.43 kilograms of marijuana, worth about $4,800 formed part of the seizure.
Carbon revealed that the items were discovered locked in a public convenience
Furthermore, Carbon stated the seizure is a major concern to the Dominica Police Force.
“It is of major concern to the police because these actually are very high powered rifles which of course are not supposed to be in the hands of civilians…,” he said. “We do not know whether there are more, but we just know these are what we found, so we know that these were out there.”
Meantime, Head of Central and Operations, Inspector Richmond Valentine noted that when the Firearm Act Number 3 of 2011, was enacted, provisions were made for increased fines and stiffer penalties and, “government continues to provide resources which directly influence the effort of the police towards the removal of firearms from the streets.”
“In 2010, the Commonwealth of Dominica Police Force established a task force whose mandate, among other functions, were to conduct operations geared at intercepting illegal firearms and apprehending their owners. I am pleased to report that we have realized significance success in that regard,” Valentine stated.
However, he said the owners of illegal firearms are becoming more brazen as they engage in “irresponsible” and “callous” behaviour involving the use of those firearms.
“From a police standpoint, we cannot and will not allow such irresponsible behaviour by a few within our communities to continue to thrive,” he noted.
He said the Police force will continue to develop strategies and implement programs geared at maintaining a peaceful, safe and secure environment for citizens and visitors to enjoy.
No one was arrested and investigations are ongoing.
The AK-47 is considered one of the world’s deadliest weapons.
The Uzi Submachine Gun is said to be an effective and reliable weapon.
Dominica which has no airport , no educational values with majority of the
people leathally ignorant, I\’m not suprise. The island is literally a joke with
these wanna be drug dealer clowns!
A dam joke man? Where these guys going with those types of weapons? A war they prepping for?
“No one was arrested ” well whose place was raided? Someone has to know how these weapons were there. we the people of Dominica want to know. Good work officers and there are lots more places to raid. Keep Dominica safe.
Honest is the best policy. They use hermaphrodites to do the dirty work and when they are successful, the herma’s are not good enough so, here comes crime watchers
“implement “strategies” for a safer environment. laughable they are. I guess now ANYONE who is an upstanding citizen and community member of Silver Lake who even thinks about applying for a job as a Police Officer of the Comm. of Dominica will definitely be turned down because of where they live. same thing for young men and possibly women from bath estate.
Excellent work by the police.
If You want so much to intercept weapons like these why is it that Mr. Skeritt has failed to build the Coast Guard base in the North of the island ? We know He had a ground breaking Ceremony and monies were Given by the US Government. Why did He close the Capuchin Police Station which had a bird’s Eye view on the channel between Dominica and Guadeloupe?
Why why why?
I think this irresponsible behavior is endangering not only the Public at large but especially the Police Officers who have to put themselves in harm’s way !
There might be an interesting twist to this article. The Police have been under some public opinion pressure concerning their actions during a drug raid at Silver Lake earlier this year. Now they’ve entered that community again to find high-powered machine guns, a significant amount of cocaine and more….yet, no arrests were made. Let us hope and pray that these “items” did not come from the evidence locker and strategically placed and “found” in an effort to sway public opinion and justify the actions of the few Officers who abused their authority during the drug raid a few months earlier. Now, before you place your thumbs down. let me inform you that I am a very strong supporter of the CDPF with very, very close family members holding high positions in the force. With that being said, however, I am fully aware that there are some shady and questionable deeds that go on “behind the scenes”. In any event, the removal of drugs and illegal guns from society is commendable!
I agree with you, this is so strange no one was arrested. These weapons and drugs must belong to someone. we need more info and explanation.
smdh at your comment. I guess when it hits home u will sing a different song
ghetto yutes if you are in a bussiness and you feel the need for this kind of protection you need to get out of it. this is our dominica, nature island of the carribbean not iran of afganistan, these fire arms that were siezed by the police belong in a war zone.why would anyone outside of the millitary want to purchase or rather own a weapon like this?it is a blessing for dominica that these weapons were found, hats off to the police great work keep it up
Carbon the Uzi, is a far more deadly weapon than AK-47, both of which are Outlawed in the United States; the Uzi is a far more deadly weapon than the AK-47, it discharges more rounds per second than the AK-47. Once you pull the trigger on the Uzi, and it in position; it fires automatically until the last bullet of the hundreds are discharged.
In any event both are not the kind of weapons which should be allowed into the country. The Uzi is not even utilized by the military, I do not even believe the Israelis who invented the Uzi are still using it.
It would appear that there are people in Dominica who are professional drug dealers, and they are prepared to use any means to protect their drugs, even the marijuana which some claim are harmless. The question is if we do not manufacture apparels in the country never mind arms, and ammunition, one wonders how these fire arms get into the country? You only found two, there might be more.
Keep in mind two Uzi are capable of…
Keep in mind two Uzi are capable of annihilating the entire Dominica police force in a matter of minuets, that tome is troubling and very frightening: How could this be in a place like Dominica, on the other had somebody might be preparing for a pending civil war!
If you were not a jackass, and a potential murderer you would not be an Uzi lover, you are an idiot, because bullets flying from an Uzi has no particular person name written on them, they do not only cut down the target, but anything in their way!
You are a bit of fart that should hang yourself, nevertheless, you might just remain invisible and stink like a decaying dog, because a rope cannot be tied to fart since fart is nothing. Some of you are so stupid, you cannot recognize when your life, and that of others in the country are in dander!
Lol
Lol
It may be time to legalize marijuana and let the government sell it so cheaply, that criminals cannot make money in it.
America is facing the fact that marijuana is not a dangerous drug for adults; like alcohol and tobacco and allows it to be sold to adults in some states.
Excellent job officers and to keep those dangerous guns off the streets. I am wondering what was their intention to have them and where would they use them.
One thing, you should have staked out that place and when they came to pick them up, they would be caught red-handed.
isn’t that the same silver lake of December 28th, 2015
Fantastic job by the CDPF! It is ok to be criticized for doing your job.
However, you guys need to start hiding your faces during these raids. Only the squad leader and those identified as having to give evidence if contraband is found should expose their faces for legal reasons. I have to say that Silver Lake has become a cancer controlled by criminals. Yes, they are quick to portray themselves a Jardin-patat-laybar but be not deterred. I want to see if someone in the Ministry Bldg have the guts to call again and ask the boss to STOP drug squad from going there and harass the people. I expect to see someone get transferred for going to Silverlake but god is good.
Again good job officers and stay focused for your service is greatly appreciated by we the law abiding citizens.
Always Assertive!
“It is of major concern to the police because these actually are very high powered rifles which of course are not supposed to be in the hands of civilians…,” he said. “We do not know whether there are more, but we just know these are what we found…”
Mr. Carbon, you really got me scared you know. I only see these high powered riffles in Iraq or where ISIS is you know. With our passports in the hands of criminals, who knows if ISIS did not find their way here?
Keep the pressure on Law Enforcement, lots of hot sports are springing up, The mission must be relentless, smoke them out where ever they may be. Clearly it is of greave concern to all Law abiding Citizens, Pace, and tranqulity must be maintained. Great job Comrades, we are praying for the safety of all our Brothers and sisters who are charged to maintain Law and order. Clearly! brothers and sisters, you know what is out there, by the types of Fire power displayed. We need another Gun Amnesty, to give those concern a chance to come clean and hopefully they will surrender their Arms and ammunition drugs if any, following that effort bring out the Brooms# and the #Nets, let the force be with them, cause they will come for us and Create havoc on our little lovely Island. We as a people should never allow that to happen.
Lets bet that these weapons will be nowhere to be found in the next two to three months. Guess who is gonna take/steal them?????? Some insider…..
“Carbon revealed that the items were discovered locked in a public convenience.” In a public place? Need I say more? There was a drug bust just recently and it was also said that the drugs were not found on the suspect’s property. So, what are the police really going after? the criminals, or the stash? Always finding drugs and weapon but no arrests. Police should be answering some serious questions – But again, you keep in-house business in-house. Shame on this hardministration. Shame I say.
I hope no one was planning an ISIS like attack. Better yet, with all these criminals holding our passport I hope a member of ISIS with a DA deplomatic passport, was not planning an attack with these weapons of war, that found a way to get here. FBI should be involved to investigate
All 3:30 am. When the airport is closed and the place is in darkness, we seeing planes landing and as immediately after we seeing two cars driving to the airport with lights turned off. Who knows what these mafias doing?
Them police can plant these things all over the place, don’t trust them at all, planting evidence by some police all over the world is dirty tactics right now, if it is being done in developed country where they are being caught and send to prison, there’s no doubt that the corrupt police force in dominica, skerrit police is not doing the same, when they catch persons with guns, drugs etc and the evidence go missing, it’s not a local Joe that go in their volts and steal the evidence, it is them same police that thief the stuff, the same way some of them alert the big boys, the drug lords when police is about to bust them, they need to go down to the north, go on bird island to bust all the coke and guns coming out of Venezuela as well, skerrit know the reason why he took the money from the US GOVERNMENT, THE COAST GUARD BOAT WHICH I DRY ROTTING and he did not go ahead and do what he accepted the money for, there was an outcry sometime ago regarding what the police did in silver…
Maybe Venezuela could not make good with those 300 houses so they paid with what they had
u sound dunce
As yourself if you know how to build a house. what have you done for your country lately.
That’s true!!! But actually there’s one correction needed. They were 300 fowl cages not 300 houses. Anybody that call these things houses are dehumanizing us.
Lead singer above, all cheap rum talk one could tell where you coming from.
do u find tht a comment of education, keep u all silly comment to urself stop exposing illiteracy
I can’t understand why it is so difficult for Dominicans to reason and understand that there are proper ways of doing things. Because this bust was made in Silver Lake, it means that in the future innocent residents should submit to any ill-treatment by police? I would think it is these very people that are at risk of danger by the criminals among them, and they, like any normal people want to feel safe.
Asking the police to conduct their jobs properly and with sensitivity to children and the innocent, does not mean they aren’t welcome to do their job. We can have EFFECTIVE and RESPECTFUL policing at the same time. It is simply through training and accountability. No need for us to keep swinging from one extreme to the other as if there is only ONE way to do things!
It would help if those people cooperated with the police and not accommodate these gangsters instead. They can only live in the community if the residents allow them to. They must b eradicated. You do not argue with guys that carry weapons like that, which have only one purpose and that is to kill. Think about that
But they still getting away .wen you change the man .and put him out on the street he going for more
The return of the magnificent “7” You don’t use these weapons to make love, it could have been for anyone of us and our family. But please don’t blame anyone for they are getting caught. this is a big one. D/A THERE IS NO HIDING place. what about tackle a problem from 1995,and the present problem. deal in the past and forget the present. enough to wipe down three villages clean. Keep it calm
Are these people planning to start a war? Why else would these guys think they need that type of weaponry on the island?
How much can the proceeds of drugs be worth if you have to go to such great lengths to defend that stash? Are you prepared to kill and maim countless numbers of people to protect those drugs?
apparently, they are
Do a ballistic test on the guns and see what comes up.
I agree….I still remember Munger was killed with a high powered gun. Could it have been one of those? Just asking “pertinent” questions.
. My crazy mother always says; “when rouges and vagabonds fall out, just men get their rewards”.
Always Assertive!
Now are we facing up to reality, thats what D/ca has become under Skerrit
So there was 0 crime under UWP and DFP?
yes there were crimes, but not all those murder cases, crimes have exploded under Skerrit
Your P.M. has kept marijuana illegal, and from where I am perched (in front of my computer reading DNO) it looks like his police are doing a great job as far as drugs are concerned.
People need to be more co-operative in reporting wrong doing and stop holding back information that could help the police. The P.M. is not to blame for crimes committed in the general population. Some of you have a chip on your shoulder as big as a lumber yard always blaming the Prime Minister and his government for problems created by the people at large.
Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill. Evangelist.
don’t worry people in d/a will wake up one day
And what,s. The excuse for those countries who don’t have skerrit as leader?????
I was born and raised in Dominica, we never had all those guns, so go right ahead and use other countries to justifly the kaos and lawlessness Skerrit and his gang have plunged D/ca into
Gun, coke, weed etc and no arrests? Boy that reminds me of an incident similar to this one that took place in the beautiful village of Vieille case, a few years ago, and the name of some interesting big shots were mentioned you know. Could this be a repeat?
I will only commend the police when they seize drugs, guns, and arrests individuals that are connected to the crime. In fact these days finding gun is not even important because they took bobbles unlicensed gun and somehow the same gun that was supposed to be a key piece of evidence found it’s way back to bobbles in secret.
Dominica these days is about being connected with the boys. Once you are connected, you could have drugs, guns, burn GON Emmanuel’s house and evidence will find it’s way out.

Next stop Bath Estate an come down on these punks real hard. Them boys an de people who harbor their koshoni are a poison to society
Also Portsmouth, Bense, and the other surrounding villages in the north, what about that
Tell the police is not Silver Lake alone they have to go. They know damn well where else the ought to go but they will not go there. Ask them why?
the police kno where to go and when to go, Silver lake turn came tht it,
Maybe you know something the Police don’t know. You are free to call Crime Stoppers!
you damn lie is silverlake self you think you smart
please go Blue Blue is there the gully be
Matt, please go to Silver Lake and interview the very same children you interviewed the last time and get their reaction on that one!…
my sentiments exactly. Let us see what he does this time around
So the children should welcome being shoved around by police with guns fired that could kill them, so long as we get our criminals? Doesn’t that defeat the purpose of catching the bad guys, if the police ends up conducting the same harm? Police should be welcome to do their job, but it doesn’t mean they should do whatever they please with no considerations for the people they are sworn to protect!
Kid Matt is not hearing you,and Matt is not involved in the matter a.d your dirty DLP politics???Why cant idiotic heads like you offer a solution?I am literate enough,so I would have seen nMe mion somewhere…SO THE ISSUE IS BIGGER THAN MATT… at I can firmly say with confidence is this is happening while s lazy, inept, regime is ruling our country..My solution is that random sesrches
should be done in all villages, at the homes of suspects…..However if the punishment is just a slap in the wrist, THIS IS A FUTILE EXERCISE! KID can you remember who told Dominicans not to surrender their weapons when UWP had an ammesty on guns?
The more a problem is ignored, the worse it gets..During the reign of the UWP,an individual told Dominicans not to surrender their weapons .He is dead now, but the people listened and did not surrender their guns during the ammesty.I am not a proponent for the proliferation of guns in the hands of civilians….I AM NOT IN GAZA….NOW WE NEED LEADERSHIP FROM this lazy government.National Security Minister need to get out of MOO MOO MODE,and come up with a plan to deal with this deadly threat threat to our society.Silver Lake could be small in terms of illegal weapons as compared to some other communities.
Are You insinuating that these children should be traumatized and that it is justified because a few Guns were found?
Well They will grow up and be seasoned criminals and the problem will only be increased nine-fold.
You might be an elderly at that time and defenseless so please do not wish these Children any ill will because they happen to be born in Silver Lake.That is a No No!
John Paul, think of the type of GUNS that were found that the very same children live their life in the midst.
I made a comment earlier talking about the criminal hotspots in D/ca, I called Bathestate, Newtown, kingshill Tarishpit, and Silverlake. People was offended by that, well I’ll say it again because this post is relevant, keep harboring criminals still. Police probably frighten when they see what big guns they’re dealing with
if thats the case lets also call goodwill canefield mahaut including Belfast, calibisie…why not just call every village and or hanlet on the island. there is crime on one level or another PARTICULARLY in ROSEAU right next to the financial center right next to the police station. So what is your point?
prove me am i right more guns on the streets dan the house you see. the war will start yes coming soon look out
We have the man power and we have the machines too
Good for you but before ALL YOU get a little jab you running on Q96 and cry!
your days are numbered your idiot. its just a matter of time
Hungry Ghetto should be arrested ,how can we allow comments like that ?
DNO send the Police to talk to Hungry Ghetto
DNO, YOU ALL see nothing wrong with Hungry ghetto’s comment. So it passes the test for moderation
Gasp! I thought these things only existed in SOF2 #tears real life SOF in silverlake
The question is, why do these people feel comfortable calling Q95 to give their displeasure with the police going to silver lake? I always seen people who did their wrong call their big brother to defend them when they see they’re going to get their tale cut. I want to commend the police on staying true to their jobs, remember people who have things to hide will always be the loudest of crying oppression. See who said that the CCTV being placed in town, and the notion of keeping them to combat crimes in the city, is infringing on their rights. Angelo Allen said that, do you know where he works? Yes Q95, you guessed right. Let my comment move, you asked people to give their views on the news at hand DNO.
CCTV would be best served in Skeritt’s finance office. It is there that we have our biggest concern
only someone who has Q95 as their primary source of knowledge, and not a book or a “.org”, “.edu” website would write such complete garbage
this is by far the most stupid comment i have ever read on DNO
you are so silly,
What …k Floridian diaspora. Labass diaspora, you not important people talking about the safety of the citizens you coming with your politics rubbish from labass.
Great observation and never mind Floridian diaspora
His comments are always foolish
And your only source of info must be DBS radio Skeritt number on your cell phone. My comments are always foolish but you always spend time reading them. The joke is on you. Think about it you RED piece of nonsense
It has to be a chrony of Skerrit talking like that. Big Papa you need go down on your knees and pray. You sound like you scavenging yourself
Labass Diaspora like too muc political rubbish and no syncronize i will NEVER scavenge im blessed we need to put politics aside and think of more positive things its just a pity Labass Diaspora doesnt have the mental and interlectual capacity to do so.
You are so right when you stated that after doing wrong some people always look upon big brother to defend them.I know of a very CORRUPT to the bone leader on island.’THAT’S WHAT HE DOES.
What has Q 95 got to do with it? I happen to listen to that radio station but I also welcome cctv on the streets of Roseau. Angelo Allen may be against it but that is his view and I respect it as I respect his view that the police must come down hard on merchants of death. By the way blogger, the word is tail in this case, tale is something else …a story you tell that is make – believe, you should know that!).
People feel comfortable calling Q95 when the police behaves wantonly in their quest for criminals. No one is asking them NOT to police, but it doesn’t mean they are allowed to just show up and treat anyone any which way. If a student at a school does something harmful, would it suddenly become appropriate for the police to storm the school shooting and terrifying the other students? Simply asking for the police to be sensitive to others shouldn’t be seen as a call for them to stay away.
guess u were at silver lake that day. y is it that no one is saying that the very same children were the ones along with the adults throwing stones at the police.
if my memory serves me correct them same ppl they harassing in silver lake is Labour Party they rolling with..q95 is the ppl station..anyone who wants to vent call q95 cuz they can’t on Kairi or dbs..they that was more labour during the elections..
They are watching too much TV and do not appear to care for their safety and that of others until it hits home. Then they will commence crying.
CCTV infringes on their rights if they have something to hide.
The criminal element has come to that stage, that it is absolutely necessary to install CCTV especially in Roseau. Who do not like it, too bad. They can blame criminals for that. They are the ones who have caused this.
Congratulations to the Officers, you have done a great job. Dominica is too small for that.haunt them down also the big boys need to be caught. Do not be afraid to go behind them. God will protect you all.
they are doing a great job,the day after they bring the same drugs back on the street dominica police are very unfair,i hate dirty cops,i know a few ,love you dominica
Good job officers. We need to let these criminals know Dominica is a law abiding County and they cannot ruin that for the rest of us. Just some time ago the people of silver lake were angry when the police lawfully came to the community to do the same. What are they saying now. They greedy so they will hide and cover up for the criminals because they give them a little piece of bread, drugs to smoke or a lil pocket change! Good job officer.
It happens again.
Here is another example.
Marijuana is for sale. Who is selling it? The same people who sell cocaine and guns! Marijuana is part and parcel of the drug trade.
Like cocaine and guns marijuana it is harmful and should remain illegal. People who enter the drug scene by fooling with marijuana often go to cocaine and later get involved with guns and crime. It is reasonable to expect all these things to be sold together as they are.
People who go on a serial binge of violence and murder in North America are often found to be high on the weed, and sometimes it is in combination with
alcohol and/or cocaine.
Legalizing any recreational drug does not make it less harmful. It only makes it more available. These substances should never be legal. They belong to the culture of death.
Money hungry governments will legalize anything they can sell licences for and turn into a tax grab no matter how sinful and harmful it is.
Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill.
By that analogy you should be advocating for the criminalization of Alcohol and Cigarettes since they cause far more deaths yearly than Marijuana
Alcohol and cigarettes should never have been legalized.
Alcohol and cigarettes were legalized before the research was done and the studies were published. Nobody knew then the health hazards of drinking alcohol and smoking cigarettes. Had governments known then what they know now about alcohol and cigarettes it is doubtful if these products would have been approved.
Both these industries now have a huge number of employees. Governments are making millions of dollars from selling the licences to manufacture and sell these products, and millions more from taxing them. They are not about to criminalize them any time soon.
Evangelical Christians who don’t drink or smoke are not the ones who are suffering. But we are saddened to see governments talking now about making marijuana legal just as governments before them make alcohol and tobacco legal.
Sincerely, Rev. Donald Hill. Evangelist.
in other words, you are saying God created something harmful, hmm cannabis is a plant
God created all kinds of plant. Some harmful, some harmless.
Again, it is man’s FREE WILL what he choose to use God’s gifts for…
Stop justifying this. The laws are there to protect mankind.
Carcon that is such claptrap. Bella donna or deadly nightshade is also a plant created by God. As the name says it is deadly poisonous as is ricin produced by the castor oil plant. There are many other plants, creations of God that can kill you in no time. Marijuana effects your brain because otherwise you guys wouldn’t smoke that horse shit. The least it can do is give you cancer like tobacco. Having said all that, living itself is dangerous because when you live you must die one time but why should you shorten it voluntary?
You’re quite right that poisons are found in nature, but the science is very clear that the active compounds in cannabis are not among them.
Keep on smoking Steve. Would you take a flight with a pilot that is high on ganja? Or trust the judgment of a judge that sits on the bench with red eyes doped up on weed? I don certainly would not my boy.
Do you eat every animal and mammal on the face of the earth? Are they all edible?
strong argument bro
however in the US there is a strong case going around for decriminalization for ganja and the ushering in of medical marijuana. and they are not money hungry
It is not the government that is pushing it but the users.
Sounds like typical religious fear mongering to me with a bunch of baseless claims of “x” causing “y”. Once again you are using the terms “this often does that” absolutely no proof and no basis, you may preach the gospel but your statements are definitely not gospel and most of them should immediately be discounted as reaching.
Right is right and wrong is wrong. One day, those who preach the Gospel will be happy. This also means the Gospel Truth. Where will you stand?
“Money hungry governments will legalize anything they can sell licences for and turn into a tax grab no matter how sinful and harmful it is.”
And as any economist can explain to you, when this happens, the amount of violent crime goes DOWN because that money is going to legitimate local entrepreneurs rather than to foreign drug cartels and the violent thugs who work for them.
If you think that anything pleasurable is a sin that’s your business, but the thirst people like you have to legislate your sense of morality onto everyone is what’s causing this epidemic of violent crime.
what I hearing there nuh, you guys are so brainwashed by American propaganda, way back before it was legal all over the world and is a versatile plant it was going to pose a problem to the big conglomerate businesses that is why they spewed the nonsense of reefer madness to start the war on a plant, it has medical, proven medical benefits, as well as recreational, so suck allu salt and continue to drink the koolaid
If people choose to abuse it and go overboard with it that is their problem, don’t cry down a beneficial plant, people are the problem and what they do with it…
Again, we need to learn to separate our religion from the bible. The Seveth Day Adventist abstain from drinking coffee because to them it is sinful, although now they saying it is not healthy. However, in the first book of the bible chapter 1 tells us “…and God saw it was good…” So everything God created was good. Today studies show that the same coffee Adventist telling us is not healthy, is very health especially when used without milk and sugar. like everything else, we need to be moderate as taught in the bible.
I don’t smoke weed or anything though I smoked it before I got converted. personally speaking when I used it I got a high and ate plenty. It never influenced me to do anything bad. Would I encourage my son or friend to take weed? No! I have learned over the years that while coffee cause the heart of some people to bit fast while it makes others feel good. Weed is neither good nor bad but the reason people use it is because the heart craves for what ONLY God gives
Good Job! There are still some good and devoted officers…Wonder where else!!!
Hats of too the police,only cowards carry and hide firearms,these criminals must be put away from society,the silver lake residents go on Matt this afternoon,bunch of wasted people.
Switzerland has the lowest crime in the world because citizens are allowed to own guns, they don’t have to get a license. In Dread Scott Vs Sanford 1856 US supreme court ruling, it was concluded ‘Free People own guns, Slaves don’t”. Gun ownership lowers crime, NOT CRIME STOPPERS!
This isn’t the CBS news comment section. Get out with your NRA, gun nut argument.
Guns are meant to kill. That is why they are manufactured and sold.
It would be great if no one owned guns.
So you see the commosion they had the other day on Q95 about Police coming and invade them. They all know well what is going on in their community.
Did you mean “commotion?”
Where are these loud protesters against the police from Silverlake now? Matt was taken in by you all. Are they the same voices that have been harbouring these gangsters that have so much lethal force because they themselves benefiting from this illegal money? Good for the police I say. Dust these guns and magazines for fingerprints boys and you will have some very rude boys to lock up, hopefully for good.
I feel Sorry for the Police because the Minister of Finance is not providing the resources so that they can do their jobs properly .Without Forensics how can You convict?
Do some tests on the guns to see whether any were used in the recent robberies.
Hmmm
big trouble on the horizon. The police are doing a great job an they need to do more and arrest all the MR big in dominica starting from the top
good job. very well done
Them man must be in Afghanistan, with them high powered weapons in our little sweet Dominica. They have more fire power than the police….Cocaine is a hell of a drug and Dominica full of it.
good job my brothers
And you all are mad when the policemen conduct these searches? Dominicans don’t know what’s good for them smh.
Good job!!!
OMG AK-47, & Uzi Submachine we need to legalizle Guns in Dominica so citizens can defend themselves from criminals.
Do you really want us to become like Venezuela, the most murderous country in the world?
It’s also illegal for civilians to posses firearms in Venezuela :V
Which criminals? Dominica isn’t Jamaica.
For the population, Dominica is shockingly bad enough. In bygone days, Dominica was nothing like Jamaica and Trinidad.
tdominica has 70000 people here about. Jamaica has three million. Dominica is too small for these kind of buill
Guns are legal in Dominica. Just apply for your license with just cause and the commissioner will decide if you should or should not get one. period
guns are restricted in Dominica, it is not a right to own a gun such as in the USA
Now I’d like to know what people are saying about the fact that they went to Silver Lake because in a previous thread on another new header, persons found that the police had strength only on the Silver Lake people. Well, look it! It only affects us when it is close to home! If this was used on one of your family members, what would you say then? Congratulations to the police officers for doing a good job! P.S. The drug lords are never caught because they always have some young person trying to make fast money working for them.
Not only that but the BIG Boys are flying under their political colors. However, I hasten to remind them that Airrr Dominica is crashing and the red tail with the boots logo will also be broken.
Always Assertive!
