No respite from Sheriff Street noise nuisance

Jun 20, 2014 Letters

Dear Editor,
As I continue to battle for my health where noise abuse continues to be the order of the day on both Sheriff and Seaforth Streets. I wish to expose two recent acts of this cruelty.
At 02:00 am on Tuesday June 17, 2014, I was disturbed from my rest, I went out to remind the offender who was parked in front of my residence the time and also asked him to turn the music down. This was not done. He then removed the vehicle to the Budget Supermarket area, a place that has become the noise abuse and drinking spot at any hour of the mornings for some time now and he continued with this brutal assault.
On Sunday 15th June, 2014 at approximately 02;20 hrs a minibus pulled in at the Budget Supermarket and a drinking spree began. When approached and asked to turn the music down one of the offenders claimed he was on the road and was within his rights and the music continued regardless.
Shortly before the arrival of the bus, a black and silver car pulled in at the Supermarket. At 02:00 am that morning all I managed to get from the number was PNN.
Editor, it was like this idiot was just being spiteful, the music blasted off suddenly, awaking everyone from their rest. The person left shortly after, and before a patrol that was summoned arrived.
It is a trend; the noise stops for a while whenever one speaks out and then it is business as usual.
I am calling on the authorities to do something about this troubling development at the Budget Supermarket at those unearthly hours of the mornings. These people bring their liquor, drink, speak loudly and cruelly disturb people without a care.
Our very young school children are being continuously exposed to this danger and it seems as though nothing real serious is being done to curb this sickening act. And there is no cut off point for the big ones.
P Lewis
