Following a series of robberies and the fatal shooting of 21-year-old Matthew Chancellor in Tabaquite at the weekend, residents of the community have renewed calls for the reopening of the Brasso Police Station.

This call appears to have been heard, and yesterday, acting Commissioner of Police Junior Benjamin stated that the Brasso Police station would be reopened next week.

“Yes. By next week, we will be opening the Brasso Police Station and I am also pleased to say that within a short space of time, we would be opening the San Raphael Police Station so that we can give more service to the citizens of T&T,” Benjamin said.
