Calls that are actually taken different from lard battam waste ah time set who come to work to sleep.

Station does lock up, fact.

Have some that actually do work and take calls any hour, any day, any time. Depends on the shift.

I had multiple instances where calls were made during curfew, recieved and the boys in blue swoop down in record time.

Loud music complaint, caiman show up in the yard and I wanna Lego it, etc.

Task force men is a next kettle of fish. Them does come to work and not mix matters. Could stop them anywhere, anytime, any place and them men taking up matters busy busy. Dive out vehicle and run down man in bush, through drain, river etc. Men will follow up almost instantly and drive behind you to make sure you reach home or leave a personal number to call if anything so much as a glitch in the matrix occur.

When them outside bandit does have to take recess. These men move strapped with one hand on their equipment and they eh come out to make joke. It hard to out gun task force.

Six masked robbers executed a hit on the compound of Massy Wood in Debe on Sunday morning, robbing and tying up three security guards before stealing cables and a car.

The robbery occurred shortly after 2 am at the company’s quarters at Dwarika Avenue, off Suchit Trace, Debe.

Investigators said Curtis Villafana, 58 of Point Fortin, Gary Yarde, 24, of Debe and Nigel Lewis, 47 of Couva were on duty when the six thieves entered the compound. 

Armed with a Glock pistol and a cutlass, the thieves accosted Villafana, first relieving him of a Samsung A02 cellphone valued at $1,500 and undisclosed cash.

Yard was relieved of his Amalgamated uniform, boots and a black iPhone and $3,000 in cash, while Lewis, the supervisor, was robbed of $8,000 in cash, a bulletproof vest and a silver AD wagon registered PDM 8987.

The thieves then fled. However, the wagon they stole could not start as the kill switch kicked in, so the thieves had to leave the vehicle.

The security officers managed to untie themselves and called for backup.

When police arrived they checked the compound and found 900 core cables missing. The value of the cables has not been released by the police.

Investigators said the robbery was well planned and the thieves might have been monitoring the compound before pulling off the theft.

They gained entry to the compound by cutting open a fence on the northern side of the compound. The entire compound is monitored by CCTV cameras and investigators say it is only a matter of time before they make arrests. 

PC Hamilton of the San Fernando Police is continuing investigations.

Amplia dealing with a service loss to what initially was thought as Arima & environs but apparently is more widespread. They may be dealing with vandalism/cable theft.

What I want to know is when they gonna start turning the screws on the scrap iron market like they did with RORO dealers? The scrap iron dealers are encouraging crime and infrastructure sabotage.

Vandals sabotaged WASA booster station

Vandals sabotaged a WASA booster station at Thicke Village, Fyzabad overnight cutting off water access to over 20,000 people and stealing an undisclosed amount of cables.

Before gaining entry to the booster station, the vandals used a torch to cut down a functional T&TEC electricity pole which was connected to the station.

When the high tension lines toppled, they punched a hole in the concrete wall of the facility before carting off all the cables. Acting Chief Executive Officer of WASA Kelvin Romain visited the site and called for a ban on all copper trade.

He says CCTV cameras will be installed in facilities and security will be boosted. Guardian Media will bring you more as this situation develops.

cctv cameras not stopping any bandits

they tiefing copper aircon lines all over buildings in pos too

meanwhile the ppl who make the laws in no rush to stop the wave of lawlessness by passing a simply law to ban the export of copper like in many other countries, seems they have an interest in it.

tbh all it would is for ttps to make some regular raids on the scrap yards and you would see a cool down immediately

I am convinced some of these iron dealers are doing surveillance for home invasions.... from personal obeservations....

Why would the same vehicles be passing in the same area daily , scrap iron is not something ppl get overnight
