THE BUSY WEEKEND of crime-fighting for members of the Royal Barbados Police Force ended yesterday with injuries to four policemen.
The lawmen were hurt when a black SUV collided with a marked police vehicle that had apparently executed a manoeuvre to block the road at Fitts Village, St James, yesterday.
Lawmen had been busy carrying out spot checks of vehicles on Highway 1 just north of the Frank Worrell Roundabout, as well as the intersection of Spring Garden Highway and that same roundabout, when the SUV reportedly failed to stop.
However, police public relations officer, Acting Assistant Superintendent David Welch, denied reports that the cops were involved in a high-speed chase that ended with the crash.
