Head of the North-Central Division Snr Supt Vernly Gift says that the majority of murders committed within his division were due to altercations, as he appealed for the public to be mindful of their anger and walk away from volatile situations to avoid bloodshed.
Gift was responding to questions from Guardian Media during an orientation forum for Primary School students transitioning into Secondary School at the El Dorado West Secondary School yesterday.
He was also asked to comment on the murder toll, which now stands at 190 – the same figure recorded during the corresponding period last year.
