A dramatic police-involved shooting unfolded in Arima on November 22 after a reported carjacking, leading to the arrest of a 25-year-old man who sustained gunshot wounds. According to a media release issued on November 23, the incident began when a woman was confronted by an armed assailant at her La Horquetta residence around 7 pm. The gunman, accompanied by another suspect, stole her Hyundai Elantra and fled the scene. Northern division police swiftly responded, intercepting the stolen vehicle and engaging in a high-speed chase. During the pursuit, the suspects allegedly fired at the officers, prompting the police to return fire in accordance with their use-of-force policy. The vehicle eventually crashed in the Mt Pleasant area, where the 25-year-old driver was found injured and hospitalized. His accomplice managed to escape into nearby bushes. Authorities recovered a firearm from the scene. In a separate but related operation, Inter-Agency Task Force officers discovered 3.1 kilograms of cannabis during a search in Snake Valley, Laventille. The operation, conducted between 2 pm and 8:30 pm on November 22, was led by senior officers including ACP Hazel, Snr Supt Ramnarine, Supt Ramsook, and ASP Singh. Investigations into both incidents are ongoing.
