Three People Arrested After Last Night’s Shooting

June 17, 2014

Three people have been arrested in connection with the incident last night [June 16] in Warwick, which saw shots fired at a jet ski.

A police spokesperson said, “Police can now confirm 3 persons have been arrested in connection with the firearms incident that took place yesterday evening at a few minutes before 8pm at Darrell’s Wharf in Warwick.

“It appears that the tour boat Coral Princess was returning from an excursion [local patrons] when a motorcycle appeared with two men, the suspects fired at a jet ski that apparently were following the boat into the dock.

“No one was injured and police are appealing for witnesses or anyone who may have seen two men leaving the scene on a motorcycle.

“We are particularly interested in speaking to anyone that was on board the Coral Princess or anyone who was at Darrell’s Wharf to contact The Serious Crime Unit on 295-0011.”

    Three people arrested? At most there are two people on a bike… Hmmm I wonder what the charges are going to be.

    • Double M Four Twos says:

      Devonshire Doggs..don’t wonder too much you might blow a gasket…

    • James says:

      Well how about the third person was in a conspiracy with them or maybe he supplied the gun or maybe he was harbouring them! The possibilities are endless!

      • SneakO says:

        Exactly – the caller , texter. Book’em danno!

  2. the correct facts says:

    Coutos to members of the public and police on an arrest.

    • Raymond Ray says:

      Yes indeed, “coutos” to the public and police…but we mustn’t forget that an arrest is one thing but a conviction and a stiff sentence is another :-(

    • Keepin' it Real!...4Real! says:

      wats “coutos”..? or did u mean kudos..? i only say this because of your name…lol

    • James says:

      The level of English on Bernews comments is horrendous!
      Coutos? The teachers must cringe when they read this stuff!

      • Raymond Ray says:

        Yes, kudos…But of course, some folks never error right? :-(

      • SOMERSET OG says:

        I think the teachers might be a part of the problem. I know plenty of people who can’t spell most common words.

    • Family Man says:

      In polite company you keep your couties to yourself.

  3. micro says:

    Somebody onboard definitely has information, they definitely aren’t coming forward tho.

  4. Terry says:

    Maybe the ‘jet skier’ was arrested too.
    Tink.

    • Keepin' it Real!...4Real! says:

      isn’t it usually the jet skiers carrying…umm? idk…

  5. nuffin but the truth says:

    can I hang them now or do we really have to have an expensive trial

  6. Amazed says:

    Check out the passengers on that cruise boat. My hunch is that someone onboard sent a text or made a call to the “bikers” informing them of the jet skiers whereabouts. There is no way the “bikers” would’ve know otherwise…..interesting. Such a beautiful day yesterday. Glad they didn’t come to Paradise lakes with their crazy nonsense. So peaceful out there….Get a life young men.

    • D says:

      Ya I was thinking someone their phone to contact the riders

  7. Me says:

    A bunch of fools trying to ruin a peaceful neighborhood. Coral princess should have to dock in town or cancel these cruises!

    • SneakO says:

      Why??? So if they shot at someone in a taxi, should Taxis all stay in town? What if it was a bus, should we keep those in town too?

  8. Buju says:

    Arrests came very quickly indeed. Anything to do with the affluent neighborhood? Shots go off in some parishes on the regular and it don’t even make the news!
    Feels different when its close to home huh?

    • Common cent$ says:

      Maybe it’s people people (witnesses) in that neighborhood actually came forward with information instead of turning a blind eye to avoid being a rat or narc

  9. Justice! says:

    Buju,

    No doubt the affluent hoods, islandwide, are before the eyes of security cameras that are actually working–24/7. Those dwellers sense unrest in the native air.

  10. Kindley says:

    I see nothing about this shooting and arrest as something to take lightly. Remarks about the neighborhood and police….not necessary.

    I’m sure you would feel differently if you or your child were on the boat or jet ski.

    I’m glad no one was hurt and hope those who are at fault will be punished. Shooting at someone is a serious matter.

  11. slim ting says:

    It was a “town” cruise, so they say. Those on jetski were from “west”. People saw two “town” guys sitting on land like they was plotting! Then a bike shows up wit 2 ppl on it shooting at the “west” boys on jetski, so what we make out of that?
