Shooting at police raises concerns with BPA

The Bermuda Police Association notes with great concern the reckless and criminal actions of the two individuals who senselessly shot at our officers while they were responding to a call for service to protect members of the public. The Association condemns this cowardly act and stands in full support of the officers and ranks on file.

This unprovoked act of hostility serves as a stark reminder of the dangers that members of the BPA face while protecting the public.

We commend the bravery of the officers who, despite being shot at, stood their ground and ensured the safety of the public. Their dedication to duty and professionalism is truly inspiring and deserves our utmost respect.

The BPA fully supports these officers and any other officers who are attacked while carrying out their lawful duties. We are committed to ensuring that these officers’ welfare is taken care of and will do everything in our power to ensure that the perpetrators are brought to justice.

The members of the BPA remain unwavering in their commitment to protect the public against such lawless individuals. We will not be deterred by these criminal-minded individuals; instead, we are redoubling our efforts to ensure the safety of the public while safeguarding the welfare of our valued officers.

We join with the Bermuda Police Service in asking the public to report any information that could assist in this investigation. We are grateful for your support and cooperation. You can do so by calling 211, speaking to a police officer you know, calling the Confidential Crime Stoppers Hotline at 800-8477, or alternatively visiting the BPS online community reporting portal at portal.police.bm to submit your anonymous tip regarding the shooting.
