One young man is currently nursing serious head injuries at the Princess Margaret Hospital following what appears to be gang-related violence in a Roseau North community.
The young man, who is employed as a government surveyor, was reported to have been struck with a rock by another young man who was accompanied by several other young men.
Eye witnesses say the right side of the young man’s face appeared to have been severely damaged.
He was rescued by neighbors who subsequently called the ambulance services which transported him to the hospital.
Police are investigating the matter and DNO will continue to follow that story.
The incident occurred on Sunday.
up to know police cant even come to the boy
and ask him question but they say they investigating
stupes.dominicans are bias people ask a question there is no smoke without fire
there is two sides to a story
these boy form fond cole must stop that one will die befor they stop. and my boy didnt have nothing to do with that and see what happy
do we really know the facts? Was the oficer on duty? was he involved in wrong allocation of land? Is this vigilate justice? Were they drinking partners? I dont know. DNO must illuminate the story
my ppl ar we going to seat and look while this young man put our beautiful island on the bad list something need to be done
to bad but dominica need to seriously making these criminals serious time behind the bars and work on making the prison making it more secure with hard labor. judges/law enforcers stepup on the game, before we loss peaceful dominica
What is even more frustrating and unfortunate is that the perpetrators are yet to be caught by the police and even after they are caught they are realeased.These little boys are terrorizing the community , threatening innocent people and even after numerous reports on them an arrest cannot be made. The guy they attached is not a member of any gang ,he just happen to be a friend of the ‘ENEMIES’. They go by the saying ‘ALL CHINEY IS CHINEY’ so anyone associated with their ‘ENEMIES’ automatically become a target. Even all this the sad part is that their mothers uphold that type of behavoir!.they cover up for them and blames other people when those little wolligans laugh and continue to believe they are untouchable! something need to be down and fast! carnival is around the corner and we dont know what they have up their dirty little sleeves.
THE BAD INFLUENCE OF AMERICAN TELEVISION…..
u not making no sense cause i watch american channels and movies and i still don’t behave like that.
Dominica now is the breeding ground for young criminals.The situation is really bad.there is a sense of desperation and wanton lawlessness disobedience for law and order. Majority of young people i talk to are willing to use cutlass and guns to resolve their issues. Parents that love their children do what it takes to protect your children from these unbecoming society. Dominica has the highest rate of illiterates i have ever seen. Poverty is no excuse for people to be aimless.
Too bad…visitors love the nature island, but if violence goes on, we will not come back.
From your comment i assume the visitors themselves come from the garden of Eden where there is no violence. give me a break With your comedy!
well the statistics said d.a have much many more men than women… is gang related crimes the answer… i guess not… it’s so sad young boys engage in such…. while you all go to jail.. i’ll get a better chance lol

Way papa! why don’t we stop these foolishness na? Love D/ca, Love. Brotherly kindness to ur neighbours please.

The biggest cowards in the world are those persons that are part of gangs hence the reason they’re afraid to move around on their own. A bunch of high grade fools you so called ‘bad boys’ are!
Officers hunt down these vagabonds like they ought to be hunted!!
wow we need to educate our children on gang violence
Again why not…seems like Dominica is a perfect place to beat up people if you have the money….I guess it is one way of raising recources….they’ll end up being fined…..in no civilized nation is omeone fined for physically assaulting another person…..
