I am pleased to know there is a suspect. I hope he is the one.
When people go to entertainment places, they should be able to enjoy themselves without this type of incident. The fact the man had a gun, his intention was to use it. Why else would he carry the gun? We hope to hear what occurred.
Hope the Guadeloupe visitor is recuperating.
Yet another lesson for young people: do not be materialistic, do not take high risks for quick money, stay away from the drug trade and other illicit actions
Best I sell all my gold since dominicans start killing for gold… I don’t understand how people can take a life for material things.. maybe it had more to the story..
It does not have to be more to the story. Remember those tourists who were accosted and their jewelry stolen, actually pulled from their necks in broad daylight in Roseau?
At a time as that the suspect assumed they had money and jewelry. Too many bad eggs around. They must be locked up for good.
You all don’t know Grand Bay people by now. They will kill you in the presence of everybody from Grand Bay but when the Police comes, all of them will say they don’t know who did it. How cold can they be.
that how it is all over, know body have time to go to court with you.the police will be calling 50 times to ask you the same question,like its you that kill the man.especialy when both the victim and the killer is involve in la men choise.
until it hits home!!!!
It is not only Grand Bay people. There are people who do not want to get involved. They fear for their life. If they could give evidence without showing their face in Court most people would be quick to talk to the police.
Witnesses must be protected.
Leave grand bay people alone
grand bay man or not,give him a wonderful jail time for endangering the public, murder and eligal weapons charge.25 years to life .call the case fast before his mother go guadelope and tie up the case.
Your pic says it all, but you were one of the guys who had the chance to turn your life around but refused and sad to say many moe will follow you. it hurts to you that you gone like this. i know you attacked me personally and while you were attacking me i was still asking you to change your ways so you could see brighter days. Rip yet again..
never judge a book by its cover my brother
Oh please! !! Lala “febriese” is saying that Mc Garvin attacked him how is that judging a book by its cover? If this is the most decent pic the media could get of him it’s says alot… books are not people people put covers and labels on book n people label themselves I hate when people start speaking only good of the decease like the person was some saint stop being hypocrite dominicans I know Mc Garvin on a personal level he was a hustler he was a man who could sell money to you but he had his OLD ways! He involved himself in bad things too look at his whatsapp his last dp was a long gun and bullets on the side you know the saying LiveByTheGun…
You sounding like a hater man
What’s wrong with you thugs, leave thug life alone. Doe mess or mix with wrong people whether in Granbay or Roseau.
Read the related stories section you’ll see there’s too much killing and violence in D’a on a whole, hold your side.
No matter what he was like, the man who shot him was wrong.
Everyone has good and bad in them. God knows this too well. This is why He is compassionate, merciful and forgiving.
God forgives. He is the Judge. At the time of his death you do not know if he asked God for pardon.
Saint Faustina Kowalska of Poland who wrote her diary on the messages she received from Our Lord Jesus Christ and also through inspiration said, at the time of death, God calls out “three times” to give every soul that final chance to repent. There is more. If He accepted God at that time, his soul is in Purgatory. It will be there for a period of time to be cleansed.
No one dies perfectly.
While we must not take God for granted, it is not his wish that souls perish. People condemn themselves. God does not condemn them.
If you are a Catholic of all, pray for his soul. Our duty is to pray for the departed. God and the souls know where their souls are in eternity.

When this story was first reported, several Grand bay people commented about this had nothing to do with Grand Bay people, that people were spreading malicious lies about their community. So what are you all saying now, that the police arrested the wrong man, that DNO reported wrong, that man not from grand Bay.
Let me hear you all now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Last week, Your Para rep. goes on a political platform and praises a certain disgraced Minister from her party as being a REAL Man. This is in sharp contrast to the billboards placed around the city proclaiming that
Real Men do not attack children.
Says a lot about that Grand Bay community
You believing Grandbay people Garson? You probably believing the pie in the sky too
U lie
Ur comments says a lot about you too….. lol everything is politics hush ur mouth ur old workers
It is election time and you will see the pro and con.
Did this Parl Rep attack the minor? We do not know the full story from both sides.
Frankly, we should be curious to know what really occurred. Hope it will be revealed.
Who is perfect, also in words?
