Close to 30 Pi­o­neer Dri­ve, Sea Lots res­i­dents marched to the Cen­tral Po­lice Sta­tion (CPS), Port-of-Spain, yes­ter­day to beg the po­lice to in­ter­vene in what they claimed is an on­go­ing in­ter­nal war in the com­mu­ni­ty.

Ja­da Mor­ris, Eleanor Grant and oth­ers com­plained that their lives were un­der threat by young men re­sid­ing close to the area that bor­ders the Wright­son Road/Beetham High­way.

The group, which was re­port­ed­ly ini­tial­ly turned away from the CPS by a fe­male po­lice of­fi­cer who ad­vised them to go to gang lead­ers to re­solve the is­sue, was lat­er giv­en an au­di­ence by act­ing Com­mis­sion­er of Po­lice (CoP) Ju­nior Ben­jamin out­side the Po­lice Ad­min­is­tra­tion Build­ing.
