The Bermuda Police Service (BPS) has received reports of a social event attended by a significant number of individuals and which is said to have taken place at a location in Pembroke Parish last evening. Attendees were also reportedly not wearing masks nor practicing social distancing.

These are all offences under the current COVID-19 regulations.

An investigation into these reports has now commenced and while the location of the reported gathering is known, the BPS is seeking the public’s assistance in identifying the organisers of this event.
