Acting Commissioner of Police Junior Benjamin says increased auditing and stronger systems are leading to a reduction in the number of bullets with police markings being found at crime scenes.
On June 6, while investigating a murder in Petit Valley, police found three spent shells marked "TTPS." On June 2, two spent 9mm shells with similar markings were found at the scene of a murder in Edinburgh 500, Chaguanas.
Contacted for comment, Benjamin did not dispute the information but said there has been a “tremendous reduction” in these types of finds.
