Adjustments to security around Prime Minister Perry Christie’s home are being considered after police received reports of gunfire in the area.<\/P><\/p>\n
At around 8:10pm Monday police received reports that shots were fired in the vicinity of the home of the prime minister’s mother-in-law, Mrs Kitty Hanna.<\/P><\/p>\n
Mrs Hanna lives next door to Mr Christie on Cable Beach.<\/P><\/p>\n
Speaking with The Tribune yesterday, Chief Supt Hulan Hanna said that police immediately rushed to the scene, but could not detect any sign of “mischief.”<\/P><\/p>\n
“Nevertheless, we called in crime scene investigators to look over the area, but there was no indication that anything untoward had happened,” he said.<\/P><\/p>\n
Mr Hanna said that police are satisfied that the prime minister and his family members were at no time the targets of a criminal act. He emphasised that police are committed at all times to ensuring Mr Christie’s safety and his ability to move about unfettered. Following this incident, he added, police are now considering certain adjustments to the prime minister’s security.<\/P><\/p>\n
At least four police cars were at the scene Monday night and late yesterday afternoon two policemen were seen at the front of the house with a police car parked in a vacant lot behind the home on Hampshire Street.<\/P><\/p>\n
