SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) The three scientists credited with helping save lives ahead of a recent explosive volcano eruption in the eastern Caribbean island of St. Vincent are known to locals simply as Richie, Rod and TC.

The New Democratic Party (NDP), said it is “extremely concerned about the profoundly disturbing matter of the shooting and beating of a man just over three weeks ago and the involvement of a Senator and a senior public official and a third person as alleged assailants”.
In a release dated May 8, 2021, the party pointed out that St. Vincent and the Grenadines is a country of laws and “we believe in the Rule of Law which guarantees the equality of all citizens before the law”.
The party said it believes as well in the transparent and fair administration of justice and abhor the abuse or misuse of power.
