THE UNITED NATIONS (UN) has its eyes on the recent criminal activity
in Barbados.
The UN’s Department of Safety and Security (UNDSS) last Friday sent out a security advisory to all of its personnel in Barbados, warning them to increase their vigilance, and suggesting what action to take should they be confronted with any criminal element.
“We received credible reports that a number of recent robberies are believed to be committed by a group of five armed men. The men are believed to be travelling in one vehicle, possibly a burgundy or red Kia, targeting both businesses and individuals,” the UN’s regional security advisor Corinne Heraud wrote from her office in Trinidad and Tobago.
“The men may be attempting to trick victims into stopping or exiting their vehicles by driving behind them and flicking their headlights. The five men were last encountered in St Joseph,” the advisory warned. (BA/PR)
