Cool.
lock him up n dont let him out!
Agreed. We have to time to waste on the BS. Most of us are trying to work to get this island back to the top and we cant let these punks pull as backwards.
Great work BPS and Somerset PS
Way to go BPS!!!
Bernews,do you know how I can find out how I can get a form online to renew my U.K passport ? because you can not no longer get the forms in Bermuda…. I have tried to get this form and so far no luck…

Call the Department of Immigration. They may not have them but they will know where you can get it.
You can go to Western Union also and they will do everything for you there,if you don’t want the hassle of doing it yourself.
Hmmmm…how did we get from a gunshot arrest to UK passport renewal?
lol i was thinking the same thing
Bring back Hanging!
go to this website for uk passport https://www.gov.uk/overseas-passports
Yep! I heard those shots when they were fired last night. The first thing I thought about is “this is to close to home”. These hoodlums need to stop destroying our island and our neighborhoods.
Cedar Hill is normally so quite except the occasional noise from one nieghbor who thinks he haves to play his personal music for the whole neighborhood, but that is only on occasion and has only been going on lately.
Loud music we can tolerate from time to time!
Shootings no! Out of character and we will not tolerate it
STAY OUT OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD! We don’t want that kinda trouble around here! I know I speak for the community at large.
Come on youth men lets tidy up the streets and make everybody happy. Make Bermuda a safer place for everyone.
How they went about arresting him was wrong! And it’s the wrong guy!
ok,so you know who was the right guy then tell de po po or shut de F up bye!
actually i was there when they arrested him and i did! so shut the f up bye!
SMH – You should comment & report “how” he was captured. Clear it up for the public & the injury caused, because the police decided to leave that part out.
The commenter didn’t type that they know who did it but that they believe the suspect is innocent. I’m glad you’re not a police officer or you’d probably be condescendingly bias to suspect’s alibis.
How come everything is not disclosed, no mention of shots @ White Hill three weeks ago.
@Bermyboy you are very correct, The only disturbances we have had is from that one neighbour on the hill, who plays the Mucis and TV very loud on occassions but once we call BPS they always respond and ensure its turn down.
When I heard the shorts last night, I was deeply concerned; In all my years on Ceadar Hill we never had that. We need to come together as neighbours and put a stop to ensure we keep tha area safe.
On another note we need to address the bike noise when it happens. We need to protect our neighbourhood, it time to speak up Ceder Hill residence.
You know right wrong or indifferent there is one thing that I am grateful for, that Bermuda is still a praying country and our prayers do get answered,don’t be so quick to see who is right or wrong because some may get caught when they are actually innocent of that which they was arrested for, but it may end of being pay day for a crime you did not get caught for, This is in no way directed at this last incident but it is always amazing how people get caught in their own traps, sooner then later.
Wrong guy
OK so if it be the wrong guy, and you know who the right guy be, then speak up. If you was there, then you as guilty as the shooter if you say nothing. I do not wish for innocent ppl to serve time for crimes they don’t commit, but if you put yourself in certain situations, you gonna be looked at as guilty. Help the police and speak up, or let the innocent person sit in jail.
Pack him off to Nottingham, let the people over there deal with the problem.
This seems to be counterproductive don’t you think? If Duane P Santucci had read the RICO Act as I suggested he could help me explain but since Duane insist that Minister Dunkley knows better he has taken his advise of prayer. I honestly have nothing against prayer I’m just not sure how responsive the Almighty would be to stop a war created from lumping a plant of the Omniscient beings creation with man made chemicals then putting people in prison for possession of it. I think if we are hellbent on taking a conservative approach the time for prayer & mediation is over & there must be an act put in place similar to the RICO Act that connects the dots & takes them down.
