Persons in Vieux Fort are fearful that reprisals will continue in light of two recent double homicides in the last month and are hopeful that the police can return safety to the area, particularly Bruceville.

St. Lucia News Online (SNO) made contact with National Security Minister Hermangild Francis for a comment on Tuesday, who had little to say except that the the matter is being pursued by the police.

“I just know that the police is working assiduously to get information as to what is happening and they will be responding in an appropriate way,” Francis told SNO.

The minister said he would encourage citizens if they have any information, to pass it on to the police, so that the police can formulate a plan to crack down on the criminals responsible for these homicides.

Top cop Severin Moncherry is reported in the media as saying that he will not allow this to continue and vowed to ensure that the Force does all it can to get to the bottom of these incidents.

Moncherry is also urging persons who do not feel safe disclosing key information, to confide in him, any senior police officer or any responsible citizen who can pass that information on to the police.

Two men were discovered dead in Bruceville, Vieux Fort on Saturday, August 6.

The victims were identified as: Trent Travis Eugene, alias ‘Jupin’ of Banse Laborie and Clint Felix, alias ‘Black Boy’ of Micoud.

One of the two men sustained a gunshot wound to the chest and the other to the head.

Both bodies were discovered in Faith Park, following a series of gunshots in the area.

On Saturday, July 23, two other men were executed in the same area.

The men, identified as Junior Gilbert and Miguel Theodore were found with gunshot wounds at Bruceville in Vieux Fort.
