The Commissioner of Police Erla Harewood-Christopher has responded to the brutal quadruple murder that happened in Mayaro earlier this week. The ToP CoP said that the impersonation of police officers was very concerning.

Her statement on the matter came earlier today, March 12.

According to some reports, it is believed that a group, including a woman and a one-year-old boy, were at a campsite in Bristol Village when six suspects dressed in police gear entered and ordered the men to lie face down and shot them.

“This incident is yet another brazen action of the criminals and challenge we face in combating violent crime on an almost daily basis, a clear motive for this incident has not as yet been ascertained, of particular concern to us also are reports that the perpetrators of this incident impersonated police officers by utilising blue lights and uniforms resembling that of the TTPS”.

Harewood-Christopher also confirmed that a multi-agency approach to the investigation is underway.
