posted (June 3, 2019)
On Friday you saw our exclusive interview with Shyne Barrow. The aspiring UDP politician discussed what happened on the morning of May 11th when Bradley Roe hit him in the face. But what prompted the assault? We heard it was hard talk. Shyne gave his version:...

Shyne Barrow- UDP Std. Bearer
"He came up to me and started hurling explicit at me and I walked out of the establishment. The entire video shows him following me out of the establishment and then shows me stopping and saying, you know, 'What is his problem.' And he continued to hurl explicit and I said, 'Listen this is not the slavery days.' This is not the 1960's or the 1950's when we had executive legislators where the Africans and the Creole didn't have rights or had limited rights. Those days are over. So, he cannot just go around bullying people and intimidating people as he sees fit and that's when he struck me."

Roe's attorney has written to the Commissioner of police saying that Shyne and others in his camp have been menacing Roe.
