RECENT CRIMINAL ACTIVITY in the Dover and St Lawrence areas in Christ Church has led to an outcry from residents and business owners, who have called for a greater police presence.
The most brazen of seven recent incidents left a 15-year-old Trinidadian girl, who was visiting with her mother, brother and friends, traumatised after a gun was placed to her head by one of three assailants who scaled the wall of a guest house in Dover.
According to reports, on Sunday around 9 p.m., the visitors, who had just returned to the guest house after dining out, were sitting by the pool when the gun-toting assailants surprised them and demanded they place their money and cellphones on the table.
Several members of the group were part of the X-Men Football Trinidad team who participated in the XXI Banks Barbados International Masters Football Festival. (LK)
