Police arrest four after fuel thieves target key BPL pipeline

FOUR men have been arrested in connection with the theft of what police describe as "a large amount" of fuel from a Bahamas Power and Light (BPL) pipeline in western New Providence on Saturday.

According to reports, shortly after noon, police received a report of people stealing fuel from the pipeline off Frank Watson Highway which connects BPL’s Clifton Pier Fuel station to the Blue Hills power plant.

When police arrived they caught a man “red handed” loading fuel from a BPL pipeline into several large containers. He was taken into custody for stealing.

Police commenced an immediate investigation that led to the arrest of three more men and the recovery of a large amount of fuel. Investigations are ongoing.

Bradley Roberts says he is filing a complaint with the commissioner of police about the defacing of PLP billboards and posters. But it was the PLP who started tearing down posters from other parties, damaging them covering them with PLP posters. There are live videos of PLP goons tearing down posters and of PLP workers placing a PLP billboard directly in front of a DNA one. These posters and billboards are very expensive and others are encouraged not to stoop to the PLP level. Like Michelle Obama said, "When they go low, you go high!"

Yea many streets only had FNM and DNA posters on the weekend. But when the PLP came to put up theirs, they removed others, covered some and damaged yet others. But it's still the people's time.
