On September 17, a container taking goods to Modern Caribbean on Torrance Street, San Fernando crashed into the pavement in front of the Catholic Church and 25 feet away from the entrance to the primary school. The exercise of removing the truck took about one hour as it had to be hoisted from the hole created by the damage to the pavement. The removal was supervised by personnel from Modern Caribbean.
They completed the task in twilight leaving it in the following condition
I called the City Police to ask for some protection for people who were not aware of the damage. Me: A truck ran into the pavement in front of the Mon Repos Catholic Church. He: Where is the Catholic Church? Me: On Torrance Street. He: Where is Torrance Street, ma'am? Me: You are working in the City and you don't know where Torrance Street is?
I hung up and called the Mon Repos Police asking for some tape to be put around the hole. They obliged some two hours later.
The following day, September 18, I called the City Police to lodge a complaint and I was laughed at for my suggestion that the officers may require refresher courses. I called the City Engineering Department. I called the Mayor's Office and I called my Councillor. He, Shaka Joseph, responded promptly to voicemail he received and in no time a truck arrived to view the damage. The truck returned to place two barrels.
