The one time I almost end up a phone theft victim was when I was parked by SMR/PBR lights in Curepe a morning with my glass down. Youth man walk up to my window and tried to grab the phone out of my hand as I was on a call with my wife. This was pre-phone use while driving being illegal.
Phone fell on the floor and the youthman just walked back to the corner spot he came from and leaned against the wall normal normal.
You 6 feet tall and YOU not get out your Aqua car and give the gunta a slap !
Why you not have a machete under your seat ?

Never made a call with glass down ever again.
Massive Inter Island Drug Bust- $72 Million Worth of Marijuana Seized
One Colombian was arrested and marijuana with a street value of $72,063,420 was seized in Barbados following months of surveillance, intelligence gathering and collaboration with regional law enforcement agencies.
In June 2020, officers of the Trinidad and Tobago Police Service began investigations into a person of interest who was suspected of controlling a drug ring based in Central Trinidad with regional and international links.
The suspect and another man then boarded a flight to Barbados in late June 2022, Barbados law enforcement was notified, and their assistance was requested.
The TTPS continued gathering intelligence and maintained relations with Barbados law enforcement, and as a result discovered that on Friday 29 July 2022, a shipment of drugs landed in Barbados.
This intelligence was further developed and on August 2nd Barbados law enforcement breached the "stash house” in Barbados where they found and seized 481kilogrammes of marijuana with a street value of TT $72,063,420.
One Colombian national was also arrested at the house.
Investigations are continuing.

Yes they valuing a kilo at 150,000 for some reason.matix wrote:The maths ain’t ‘mathsing’. A kilo is about 4-5k on an alright day.
maj. tom wrote:Police always use street value for drugs because it looks good in the papers.
They take dealer weight which is much cheaper/kg and the police calculation is how that can sell out of that kg at the max street value per gram.
e.g.
-say 1 kg 95% cocaine dealer bulk price from Colombia is USD$30k.
-2nd middle dealer cuts that into 2kg 47.5%
-Street dealer cuts again into 23.75% at 4kg.†
-Let's estimate that street corner pusher 1 gram ~23% {Brideport example} cocaine costs ~$50.
-So now that initial 1kg 95% powder seized has become ~USD$200,000 street value.
The street values are much larger if crack cocaine is calculated from the initial 1kg since that's way more potent than snuff and is cut a lot more and then sold as rocks in 1/10th grams purity to the end user.
I don't know how marijuana is cut or laced at each step down dealer for the final street value customer per gram sold, but I'm sure the calculations are similar.
† The median purity of the 343 samples containing cocaine was 23% and the average purity was 29%

2 robbed in Hindu family's temple
A brother and sister were robbed on Friday while inside the personal Hindu temple at their Arima home.
According to the police, around 10:30 am, Isha Boodoosingh, 60 and Zaman Zhor, 49 of Jokhan Trace, Carapo, Arima were in the temple when four masked men jumped over the wall of their property.
The men, who were said to be about six feet tall and of African descent, pointed guns at the siblings and announced a robbery. They took three Samsung cellphones, $1,500 in cash, as well as Boodoosingh’s TT passport and US Visa.
The men left the compound through the front gate and escaped on foot. Enquires are continuing.
This incident occurred after the Carapo Hindu Temple was robbed in May and June, the first time being desecrated as the thieves cooked corned beef in a pot used to prepare vegetarian meals.
