Nevis Police Appeal for Unity and Community Action Against Crime and Violence

In a powerful appeal for unity, Superintendent Alonzo Carty, Divisional Commander for District C (Nevis) of the Royal St. Christopher and Nevis Police Force (RSCNPF), has urged the Nevis community to actively engage in the fight against crime and violence. This call to action follows two recent gun-related incidents in the Combermere area, highlighting the growing concern over public safety. Demonstrating their commitment, RSCNPF officers participated in the Combermere Methodist Church’s anti-violence march, supporting grassroots efforts to address violent crime on the island. Superintendent Carty emphasized the importance of open dialogue, community cooperation, and faith-based initiatives in tackling crime. He encouraged residents to report incidents, seek help from law enforcement, and support one another. ‘We cannot deal with this alone,’ he stated, urging prayers for the police and their mission. Carty also stressed the role of families in guiding at-risk individuals and called for collective responsibility in addressing crime. He reassured the community of the RSCNPF’s dedication to protecting citizens and expressed hope that, through partnership and prayer, Nevis can overcome the challenge of violent crime.
