He warned that people in SVG may be inconvenienced by some of the initiatives that the police force will take, in an effort to combat crime.

“We’ll be seeing a high police presence, we’ll be visible throughout our communities, and also we will be present, but not so present, so we’ll be there and you won’t know that we are there,” he said.
