2017 Year in Review: September and October

We continue our year in review series, Cayman 27’s Jevaughnie Ebanks takes us through top stories of September and October.

On 12 September the RCIPS opened an arson investigation after two cars were set ablaze in the Palm Dale area and a bottle of flammable liquid was thrown in the window of a nearby house. The next day the police started hunting for a man who broke into a Lantern Point residence and raped a woman. One day later, police confirm an investigation after skeletal remains were found in an empty Bodden Town lot.

In October, 18-year-old Andre Challenger and his dad James Challenger appeared in court for an animal cruelty charge for a burned dog. They were found guilty and wait to be sentenced in the new year.

October was a month of grief for the family of Tonie Rodriguez who passed away in a deadly collision in East End. Later in October a group of companies led by dart had been selected as the preferred bidder to partner with government to deliver an integrated solid waste management system. A contract is not expected to be signed until next spring but the government said it was a major step in the process.
