Cops Send Warning To The Alley
posted (April 20, 2020)
And, as we told you on Friday, they started to come down in Pink's Alley. This is after a fight that happened earlier on Friday morning near Dario's meatpie. We're told it's a scuffle - but police say it was a fistfight between warring groups in the area. We do know that a businessman in the area had to fire a shot to break it up.

After that, police detained a group of men from Pink's Alley for 48 hours. Williams said they intended to have a deterrent effect:

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police
"I basically went and told them that we are monitoring their behavior and if they think that they're going to start their non-sense that they will end up in prison that was my only thing to them. I don't have time to be meeting and babysitting nobody. The gang members must understand that they are in challenging times and we are not going to entertain their stupidness. Once they start their foolishness they are going to prison and that was my message to them yesterday."
