Cops charge St James granny for son's gun
November 16, 2005
THE AREA One police said they are spearheading a zero-tolerance campaign against women who, they say, are protecting male relatives involved in criminal activities.
Following yesterday's arrest of a 54-year-old woman on gun-related charges, as part of its Operation Alpha initiative, the police have declared that "warnings are over" and more arrests will follow.
One of the women who has been charged under this new initiative is Verona Williams, a housewife of Cave Village in Mount Carey, St. James.
"I want to sensitise the baby mothers, mothers and grandmothers that they will not enjoy sympathy from the police and the community when they continue to hide weapons and after the fact, hinder police investigations and work," stated Assistant Commissioner of Police Keith 'Trinity' Gardener, head of the Area One Police Division.
