Two men are presently nursing gunshot wounds following a shooting incident in Bath Estate.
The incident took place on Saturday, June 17th at 9:00 pm near the Bath Estate Community Center.
According to Police PRO, Inspector Pellam Jno Baptiste, four masked individuals armed with guns fired bullets that injured 24-year-old Marlon Philbert of Elmshall and 23-year-old Dervon Joseph of Newtown.
“Philbert and Joseph were transported to the Princess Margaret Hospital where they received medical attention,” Jno Baptiste said.
He added that investigations are ongoing into the matter.
Anyone with information that can assist the police with investigations can contact the Criminal Investigations Department at telephone numbers 266-5164, 266-5165 or 265-5119 or Crime Stoppers Dominica at 1-800-8477.
This boys stay on Washington block and take people chain. Dominicans are tired with them. It is nothing about drugs. They have problem with everyone. So it is pay back time for them. The police will not do anything to find out who was on the Jeep and I am happy. It’s time for those boys to get a job and stop taking people stuff big day light in town
Evidence in Police Evidence locker disappear. Guns from the police armory disappear. The keys to open up the Registry disappear. Unstable man in the South assaults two and kill one, police cannot respond, because they do not have a working vehicle. Store in Roseau recently robbed and no arrest. Little candy shop in Goodwill robbed at gun point and no arrest. Police sitting in Roseau station all day not patrolling. What do you expect?
All police should be armed at all times. Mr. Carbon give all the cops their firearm licences.
I continue to question how did these guns and no doubt illegal ones get into Dominica and in the hands of irresponsible people who, at the slightest disagreement utilize it indiscriminately on their fellow people, not caring about their life and well-being.
One day whoever is responsible for bringing them into D/ca, allowing them in D/ca, if brought by air and sea (the customs) and those who shoot their fellow people will have to answer to God for it. Even some, as they live, will not grow old gracefully and healthily.
Keep in mind, too, you live by the gun, you will die by the gun. Choose the path you wish to follow.
Alot of crime happening by bathestate guys, is it because they supporting the labour party, nothing is happening? Someone needs to address this in bathestate. A bathestate man killl a lapwet man and is walking free where de hel u hear that. They just start to kill and someone needs to review this public procesuctor, she needs to go
One thing you should avoid is to bring the DLP into this. The PM, his ministers and members are not involved in such. Cease condemning yourself by also being judgmental.
one by one..think is all you alone than do?right on alu turf
Guns galore. Yes ah. Big tings ah gwan in DA. The next level.
Welcome to the next level. The country is doing quite well.
Drugs!! I’m telling you drugs, that are taking our youth away in self-destruction.
. . . And some want it decriminalized. One day they will find out how wrong they were.
Hot spots, persons talking but to the wrong people, your country your call, assist thepolice is the right thing to Do. Comrades, lots of hot spots, in the above mention Area, hit them hard, follow them in their Holes, in their caves, under the Rocks, in their houses, kitchen, garages, “Shops”. Wink! wink! go get them, the agents of Death, and enemy to the state, and our young Children. Save us from them.
Since the PM put those new apartments in Bathe Estate that area having more crime. people vehicles getting broken into, it have a brand new block where all them unemployed criminals does congregate at the apartment entrance, now people getting shot in that same area. That is the next level. That is progress. All cat and dog living in bathe estate now. the value of the place has fallen.
Well, a leopard cannot change its spots, can it. A pig in an airconditoned sty I still a pig. Roosevelt’s less than subtle attempts at gerrymandering without changing constituency boundaries will come and bite him in the bollocks when his cornupia runs dry.
Counrty is getting out of hand,and have never hear the leader condemn any acts and the police is limited on resoures to fight crime.
What do you expect when everyday all they hearing on Q is the preaching of ignorance and violence. You think those things don’t have no side effects.
When guns disappear from a central police station what do you expect.The public has no idea who took these guns and where are they at this very moment. Who knows what they are used for? It is a shame that the gov’t allowed the public to know about the disappearance but cannot give further details about them. This is where corruption comes in.We cannot trust the police so the police cannot fight crimes efficiently enough; neither is the law giving families good satisfaction when a family member is killed, rape or bitten.
The gov’t need applying stiffer laws in order to suit the crimes that are committed by these lawless criminals. Their action will play an important role in tourism because all over the world people can read what is taking place in the country. Some of our youths have no morals nor any respect for human lives. This has to stop before we become like Jamaica. Enough is enough.I hope these people will be caught and punished severely and wish the victims the best
Too much talk and no action. The leader is not the only Dominican, not the only one residing in Dominica. You are part of it and you have to do your part. One of it is, genuine, fervent worship and prayer for your country, for nationals, yourself and family. Being a critic (alone) is of no good. Pray that crimes and of especially this sort will be eradicated.
Are you surprised?
The question remains; why would i want to kill another individual? When something happens we should ask why! Because of a drug deal? Anger? but still WHY? What causes anger? WHY?
Before you read the second line, your defense is up WHY? A phone call to party and we are ready on 10 mins whereas to church an hour passes and we are still not ready. WHY?
Do we have all the questions to life? Do we?
Take some time to watch this video. It is a real world future event that will make you think!
Make time for your future.
