Twin brothers slapped with gun and ammo charges

Not the exact gun or ammo mentioned in the story.

BVI News has received reports that 22-year-old twin brothers were charged on Friday, January 24, following a search conducted by the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF).

According to information received, one of the twins was found in possession of a High Point C9 semi-automatic pistol along with 20 rounds of ammunition, while the other had a Glock 19 pistol and 20 rounds of 9mm ammunition. Both men were without valid firearm permits.

The firearms were recovered during an intelligence-led operation in Cane Garden Bay, which also resulted in the arrest of four other individuals after search warrants were executed in the community.

The arrests are reportedly connected to escalating gang activity in the area.

Police have recently highlighted a 12% increase in crime in 2024, driven largely by organised gang activity, including burglaries and robberies. While authorities have made significant arrests to address these issues, Cane Garden Bay has seen an uptick in criminal activity early this year.

        I bet you one of the parents making this post. Tis the parents who raised, condoned and encouraged this behavior. Nobody couldn’t tell them boys nothing or try to correct them. They gone for their mother and father to come make a sheet of ignorant noise defending the same boys.

        Train up a child in the way they should go…..

        Some children of parentage from a specific location in this part of the World,are consistently oozed out human lives and ignored by the obligation of parents. The lowest of animals are capable of raising their offsprings and do just that.
        Except the sludge of humanity of which there are soo many among us, that are in the unfortunate
        production of young Black males lower than worms.

    ICE just did a raid in the neighborhood and took a few illegal Santos away. One of the Santos was hollering he is married but they still took him away.You can hear a pin drop in the neighborhood and the streets is quiet. No more hanging out all times of the day and night blasting loud music and slamming dominos on table tops. The law abiding and legal people in the block is happy and clapping including myself.

      A lot of the Santos that is in the VI illegally was going to Mexico and making their way to the United States illegally. Now they are being captured in the US. The ones that was crossing the border is the worse of the worse. Criminals, rapist. Killers, gang members, drug runners you name it. Hopefully they will do a sweep in Tortola which is long overdo. I don’t feel sorry for them because they come into another man’s Country and they want to do as
      they damn well please. The first raid should be in Sea Cows Bay.

        ICE is a US entity.
        Their coming to these VI to sift out the criminals,deportees ,illegals is beyond their jurisdiction.
        The VI hasbeen negligent and determined to encourage and foster the worst of humanity.
        Soon the Trump will see what is happening …the feeding of criminal activity via the USVI and that will be the end of the BVI urinal fete.

      • BuzzBvi says:

        If they sweeping there, then they are all coming here.

        • BVI ICE Agent says:

          We had our own local who has vast experience with these matters. He was however removed from that position in Immigration all because he was doing this and his job exceptionally well. This was a direct threat to certain political interests within the BVI, so he was sidelined.

          Mr. Guy Hill please stand up! A real local boss who is not corrupted and followed the rule of the laws of this land.

          When last has Immigration & RVIPF conducted any raids and deported anyone found to be here illegally? When last?!?!?

          Natalie- as Immigration is under your portfolio what are you doing to protect our borders? Nada! Waste of time…

  7. Hmm says:

    Give them the maximum jail time possible we need to start sending a message man. Especially with gun related offenses no leniency no bail!!! The criminals getting more brazen and ruthless so the punishment need to be ruthless to match the new environment.

  8. Junie says:

    So if they were charged, are adults, why is it that their names have not been disclosed?

  9. Sad but true says:

    If your child is a menace to society somehow some way you failed as a parent. You have failed to raise a decent human being. If you can’t grasp that maybe you shouldn’t have even been a parent in the first place.
