Residents in Princess Royal Avenue, The Pine, St Michael, are concerned that another resident, an outpatient of the Psychiatric Hospital, might become violent.

And while they said they did not want him to be “carried away”, they only wanted to ensure that he was given his medication and got the necessary care he needed.

The man, whose name was only given as “Buddy” was said to be living in an abandoned house on the stretch. However, recently he threatened a female resident, leaving her uneasy and concerned for her well-being.

The woman, who declined to give her name, said he had recently started “giving a lot of trouble”. (RA)
