Saturday Night’s Murder in Cummings Lodge

Nov 30, 2012 Letters

 

 

Dear Editor,
I am writing with regard to the robbery and murder in Cummings Lodge on Saturday evening 24th November, 2012.
For the past eight months, to date, there have been robberies every night within the Cummings Lodge / Industry area, mainly Sixth Street which is the main route for U.G. Students.
A minimum of ten persons are being targeted each night. Multiple complaints were made to the Turkeyen/Sophia and Plaisance Police Station but nothing was done.
After Saturday night’s incident I have noticed police vehicles passing up and down. This makes no sense to me, since I believe they would have to stake out in order to capture these dangerous individuals.
The residents in these areas are living in fear; we cannot render assistance to friends and family since our lives would be at risk. How many more murders would there be just to fight for our safety?
I am pleading with the police force to look into these nightly robberies the residents of Cummings Lodge are facing. The police should not wait for a murder to take place before doing something.
Concerned Resident
