Police seek public help in shooting incident - Police are seeking the public assistance in solving a shooting incident that has left a man detained in hospital on Saturday 23rd May 2015.

According to reports, shortly before 9:00pm, a man was standing in front of his residence located at Meadows Street, when he was shot in the leg, by a known individual, armed with a firearm, who fled on foot. The victim was transported to hospital, where he is listed in stable condition.

Investigations are continuing.

Police issue Whit Monday holiday warning to motorists - Police are appealing to all road users to exercise extreme caution and extra care when driving during the Whit Monday Holiday.

Police message to drivers and riders is very simple.

If you speed, drink and drive, fail to wear your seatbelt, drive carelessly or dangerously, you run the real risk of killing or seriously injuring yourself, your passengers or some other innocent road user.

Everyone must take into account increased traffic levels over the holiday period and heed the road safety message.

Police will continue enforce the laws to make our roads safer, but the police role is very much secondary. All road users have a role to play in preventing deaths and injuries on our roads.

All police ask is that drivers slow down, do not drive after drinking, always assign a sober driver, wear a seatbelt and drive with greater care and attention.

POLICE ARE APPEALING TO ANYONE WITH INFORMATION REGARDING ANY CRIME, NO MATTER HOW SMALL OR INSIGNIFICANT (THE TIP) MAY SEEM, TO ANONYMOUSLY CALL POLICE AT 919 OR CRIME STOPPERS AT 328-TIPS (8477) (NEW PROVIDENCE) OR 1-242-300- 8476 (FAMILY ISLANDS)
