Cops Descend on Dream Like City
posted (October 18, 2019)
Dream Like City - it's a popular nightclub located at mile one on the Phillip Goldson Highway - but last Friday - a woman was beaten and stabbed there.

That, along with an X-Rated dance competition prompted the police commissioner Chester Williams to write this in a text message to the media, quote: "That place needs to be closed down. It has become a problem and the lewd behavior that takes place there should not be tolerated. I just can't understand why will all that's happening there the liquor licensing board continues to grant them extensions until 3am." End quote.

Now, when we asked a member of the Liquor Licensing Board he took a different position, and suggested that the Commissioner is too eager to close places down.

So, if the Liquor Licensing Board won't do it, it seems the Commissioner will bring down pressure on Dream Like City in his own way.

This morning at 2:00 am, Police visited and the place. They detained several Females for immigration offences. Additionally, a Female Security Guard was also detained for Kept Firearm and Ammunition without gun license.

Up to this evening, we could not confirm if charges had been brought.

This club - and others - is a source of ongoing friction between the police and the Liquor Licensing board.
