Disturbance
At 10:15am on Thursday, Police received a report of a disturbance. The complainant, a female bus driver, stated that Wednesday afternoon she picked up several young men from the bus stop near Arnold’s Supermarket in Sandys parish and continued driving the bus on her scheduled route heading west.
