 The Royal Saint Lucia Police Force has resolved to ramp up intelligence-driven patrols and hotspot policing amid a soaring homicide rate. Commissioner of Police Milton Daisy says police are making headway into their investigations into recent killings. He says particularly disturbing was the tag-asset attack on Executive Secretary of the Grosely Minnibus Association, Hermia Lord. Daisy was shot at point blank and a defenseless person, a male, come into a woman. And this, I think, is something that we need, we need to look at and, actually, we are pursuing a suspect in that matter and we are hoping that justice would be served when this person is arrested. Daisy encourages the public to assist the police in their investigations. In fact, instead of circulating voice notes or messages that you could get to someone, the Office of the Commissioner, a close friend, as it has been communicated, the police that you trust, somebody, give them that information which would be relayed to the investigators so that we would be able to see light through our investigations. So I'm appealing to members of the public and also thanking those who have come forward to give information. Commissioner of Police Milton Daisy.
