CoP Calls “Selected Outcry” Following 2 Year Old’s Murder

By Newsroom

One day A father and his two-year-old daughter were shot and killed in Tunapuna, Police Commissioner Gary Griffith said he hopes the incident sparks outrage and protests like other incidents in the past.

39-year-old Stefon McLeod and his young daughter Aniya, both of Achong Trace, Tunapuna, were gunned down on Friday night.

In a statement released on social media, Commissioner Griffith said “Every life lost is one life too many, and is and should be treated as heinous, however, when murderous gangsters, intentionally point their illegal weapons at their target, and proceed to pull that trigger regardless of who their target may be, and takes the life of an innocent, a baby no less, demands equal outcry. If this doesn’t move us to work together, I am not certain what can.”

Griffith said he expects the various lines of outreach to communities including the 555, TTPS App, and 482-GARY, to be overrun with credible information to be transformed into intelligence to support the swift capture of these “monsters”.

“And I say monsters, because I dare not refer to someone who killed an innocent child as a cockroach, because the defense for such cold-blooded criminals, is alarming when they are referred to as such,” he said.
