Warring youth gangs turn popular downtown attraction into a war zone

Basseterre, St. Kitts, March 5, 2018 – One of St. Kitts’ popular downtown attraction was turned into a war zone last week, according to local media reports.

Taxi operators around the Berkeley Memorial, or The Circus area, are voicing concerns over several recent incidents of violence that threaten to interfere with the tourism product of the island as well as significantly impact their source of work.

 

The vocalising of their concerns come after an apparent gang-related incident, just after midday on March 3, where several young men threw rocks and bottles at each other, around the Circus area, with no regard for life or property.

Passers-by reportedly had to run and seek shelter to avoid sustaining any injuries.

There were no reports of injury but at least two taxi operators had their vehicles damaged. The windscreen of one vehicle was shattered while the side view mirror of another was broken off.
Saturday’s incident is said to be the third in the area in less than two months.

Tourists have been caught in the middle of the disputes and have suffered injuries.
