Fri, 2011-07-29

The Bermuda Police Service can report a relatively uneventful Thursday (Friday until 6pm) as there were minor pockets of activity around the island with only a few minor incidents to report. Of note police were called to Horseshoe Bay beach yesterday after receiving a report of a disturbance. Upon police arrival 2 males were taken into police custody processed and detained at Hamilton Police Station and police in the abundance of caution shutdown Beach Fest at 8:30pm without further incident.

A fight was reported at Southampton Rangers Sports Club on Thursday evening however, upon police arrival the perpetrators made good their escape.

A 40 year old man was arrested at the Gate of St. George's Cricket Club with drug paraphernalia he was transported to the Southside Police Station where he was processed and detained.

The Bermuda Police Service is cautiously optimistic about the rest of the weekend (Friday night to Sunday night) and we are advising the public that police will have a very highly visible presence for the rest of the Cup Match weekend. If you drink please do not drive and if you see something suspicious say something to the authorities. If you are attending any major events during the evening hours please be patient as there are sure to be searches taking place in and round those venues. All of this activity only serves to make Bermuda safer.
