Curfews imposed in sections of St. Mary amid escalating crime

By Kimone Witter    
 
Curfews are in effect in sections of St. Mary to address escalating crime.
 
The security measure has been implemented in Enfield, Annotto Bay; and Albion Mountain and Free Hill in Port Maria.
 
The curfews began at 6 p.m. Wednesday and are scheduled to end at 6 p.m. on Friday.
 
The police say the imposition of these curfews follows increased gang activity, arson, shootings, and potential reprisals, which have heightened public fear and eroded trust in these areas.
 
They say immediate action is necessary to restore order, protect residents, and prevent further escalation.
