The La Reine Rive Self-Expression and Talent Finals, part of the Prime Minister’s Best Village Trophy Competition, came to a halt on Saturday night at the Southern Academy for the Performing Arts after a contestant set off smoke bombs on stage during her performance.

Best Village programme manager Louris Martin Lee-Sing told the Express by phone yesterday that an investigation into the incident was ongoing.

While no damage was done to the San Fernando venue, the audience had to be evacuated as a precaution.
