    Self proclaimed "gangstas" shooting at other "gangstas". I think the best thing RCIPs could do is give them some lessons to improve their aim.

     Cayman Crime Cycle spins its wheel and Statistics is the science of producing unreliable facts from reliable figures and there are two types of statistics 1. the kind you look up and 2 .the kind you make up the RCIPS more than often appear to be using the latter. Crime is down 13% is mostly do to certain circumstances and not largely do to them alone as some of the lords of law and order at the RCIPS would like us to believe. You can prove anything with Statistics accept the truth.

    Quick work by air and ground units to nip this in the bud as it could well have led to the tit for tat killings experienced last year.  Well done the RCIPS.
