The residents of Gregory Park in Portmore, St. Catherine, are grappling with the harrowing memories of a nightmarish incident that occurred last Saturday. This horrific event left numerous residents homeless after their homes were targeted and set ablaze by individuals associated with criminal elements. Disturbingly, a resident recounted that these malevolent actions were not orchestrated by outsiders, but rather by members hailing from a neighboring community referred to as Gulf.
It is disheartening to note that this violent episode, orchestrated by marauding gunmen, is far from unprecedented. The individuals responsible for these acts of aggression are no strangers to law enforcement, with many of them being recognized by the police. Amidst the chaos, a mother of four recounts her own harrowing experience, where she had to assume the role of protector for her family. This daunting task included defying threats from these men, who insisted that they remain trapped within their burning residence. The gravity of the situation highlights the need for urgent attention and intervention to quell such senseless violence and ensure the safety and well-being of the residents who find themselves ensnared in this cycle of fear and danger.
