Dear Editor,
There is another pandemic and it is bourgeoning on our shoreline, I am speaking of the pandemic of robberies. Well, frankly speaking it is not a new phenomenon by any stretch of the imagination, only when you are talking about Region 4 or when Georgetown comes into focus. “Thiefing,” as we commonly call it, has long been a perennial problem in this geographical portion of our country, therefore it comes as nothing new to us. A daily occurrence of this disgraceful exercise is what we are faced with whenever you visit the urban locale.
Now, there is a recent camera – CCTV camera footage – circulating, which shows an innocent man being robbed at knifepoint by one of these lost “city boys.” The incident takes place right before the very eyes of many bystanders who just sat there and did nothing. As it stands, this matter is robbery with the use of a deadly weapon and in the eyes of the police this matter could be easily solved with the usual crime fighting strategies.
Sincerely,
Neil Adams
