[UPDATED] Acting CoP: Quarantine left police patrols scarce in San Fernando as jewellery store employee gunned down
Acting CoP Mc Donald Jacob said officers under quarantine for covid19 exposure led to an absence of police patrols in the main commercial centre of San Fernando on Saturday morning where a jewellery store was robbed and an employee shot dead.
In a telephone interview, Jacob said the police crime-fighting plan was taking a serious beating from covid 19.
“We are getting a serious lash from covid,” he told the Newsday in a brief phone interview.
“What I understand is that there were not adequate foot patrols. There are 22 persons in San Fernando on quarantine and relevant adjustments were not made quickly enough to ensure they (police) maintain the presence that is normally maintained.”
Jacob said he went to the scene and spoke to the commander about it and also about the input of the municipal police to maintain greater coordination.
He said with the use of mobile patrols and CCTV footage they were able to institute a lockdown in several areas resulting in the interception of the getaway vehicle in La Romaine.
One occupant of the vehicle was arrested and the search continues for the others who were dropped off before the vehicle was intercepted.
Also commenting on the crime, National Security Minister Fitzgerald Hinds appealed to citizens to share with the police or law enforcement agency, knowledge of any “miscreant in your community who is possessed of a gun.
‘You can’t have a gunman if you don’t have a gun,” Hinds said at a PNM meeting in Laventille on Saturday.
Hinds said he had seen a video of the San Fernando incident.
"I don't patrol. I wish the police would catch the perpetrators now."
The police came under fire from San Fernando mayor Junia Regrello, Greater San Fernando Chamber president Kiran Singh and shoppers who witnessed the shooting and assembled around the body of Andy Alberto Macias Hosein, 33, outside Ketan Jewellers where he was employed.
Singh who was in his business place on High Street said he had to call senior police officers to inform them of the robbery and murder before a team was deployed some 30 minutes later.
He said before that he drove around the city for about 90 minutes and could not find any officers on patrol.
The San Fernando police station is a stone’s throw from where the shooting took place.
Around 10.30 am, four bandits stormed the jewellery store on upper High Street and began smashing the showcases with hammers. It is not the first time this jewellery store has been robbed.
The gunmen told staff and shoppers to remain calm and no one would get hurt. Hosein who was standing by the doorway and was ushered in the store by one of the bandits, panicked and tried to run away. He was shot in the back and fell to the pavement, dying moments later.

He said a meeting was held and the protocols were revised with some new measures to help with sanitization and safety procedures.
Archie said the TTPS’ overall vaccination rate was at 41 per cent and they expect this to increase to 51 per cent.
Several officers were reported to have died after testing positive for COVID-19 in recent weeks.

They can't avoid covid.
Ah mean. It's their choice to wear that. If you wanna use the lowest form of protection don't be surprised you get covid.redmanjp wrote:in addition to getting their booster shots (2 doses doesnt seem to be enough against omicron), they should at least wear a surgical one outdoors on patrol, but indoors such as safe zones or dealing with illegal zesser parties - KN95s. i dont think they often need to run down ppl there.
that cloth rap they wearing around their head it not cutting it.

of course, some of them not wearing any mask. just went in an office in Admin building with 4 ppl, not one was wearing a mask- 1 of them only put on 1 when i came in the room. then i saw 4 officers in a ttps vehicle windows right up (no ventilation) and at least 3 of them mask less. ent dat is a $2000 charge?

you know the CDC quarantine period if you vaccinated? 0 days. none. zip.Because they understand we need the economy and society to continue functioning and we can't all stay home all the farking time we exposed to someone with covid. We exposed to covid every farking day now that it is endemic. If you unvaxxed, is 5 days home, or 0 days if you wear a farking mask.
if you actually have covid? 5 days or when your fever stops. That's it.
