Ornella Greaves -
Police Complaints Authority director David West says the investigation into the fatal shooting of Beetham resident Ornella Greaves on June 30, 2020, was still ongoing. The PCA began its investigation on July 2.
Greaves, 30, was shot during a confrontation between police and protesters at Beetham Gardens. She was part of the protests that followed the police shooting of Joel Jacob, Israel Clinton and Noel Diamond in Morvant on June 27. She was later found to be pregnant.
"The PCA investigates all police-involved shootings and this particular investigation is ongoing," West told Newsday in a Whatsapp statement on Tuesday.
West was responding to a statement by National Security Minister Stuart Young in the Senate on Tuesday. Young was answering Senator Wade Mark, who had asked for an update into the investigation by the police and the PCA into Greaves’ death.
