Sorry bro my Math was wrong. The formula is actually:
(Number of Crimes / Population) x 100,000 = Crime Rate Per 100,000

Jamaican expats who retire there after decades in the UK face an “extreme risk” of murder, a former police chief on the Caribbean island has said, as official figures revealed that at least 85 Britons, Americans and Canadians have been killed in the country since 2012.
Bandits strike twice
Freeport couple in robbery ordeal
Sharlene Rampersad
A FREEPORT couple are in high praise of police who managed to arrest six bandits who robbed them in two separate incidents one day apart.
The couple, who will not be identified as they fear for their safety, were first robbed at gunpoint on Wednesday.
In an interview with the Sunday Newsday, the woman related the first terrifying robbery.
“It was around 11.15 am and I was cooking lunch and my husband was watching a movie, when I went into the bedroom for my pressure tablet,” she recounted. “While I was there I heard my husband say “Babe, it have people,” and then a second later I saw a man come into the room with a gun and he told me ,’If you only move I will shoot you’.”
She said the gunman was wearing a mask and ordered her to hand over her money.
“I gave him my wallet and he kept asking me for more money and telling me I was lying when I said I didn’t have any.”
The gunman spotted her son’s laptop and took it. He then asked her for the laptop charger.
“I told him it was in the other room and he told me to go get it, when I went into the living room, I saw my husband lying face-down on the floor and the other bandit was tying him up.”
The second bandit was armed with a cutlass.
The gunman then demanded jewellery and when the woman said she only had the gold ring she was wearing, he took it off her finger.
“He kept threatening to shoot us and telling me don’t lie about having money.”
Next, he demanded a glass of cold water and a drink of rum.
“I told him we didn’t have any rum or water in the fridge but he could get cold water from the dispenser on the door, he took a glass and was drinking water while his partner was tying me up.”
She said the gunman then stood over her husband and told him he wanted his salary.
“My husband was telling him he didn’t have any money and he started to beat him in his head with the gun, I was crying and begging him to stop cause the lash was sounding like he was chopping him.”
The men left a short while later, warning the couple to wait 20 minutes before trying to get up from the floor. They took the woman’s gold ring, cash, a DVD player, a laptop and charger, a phone and a bull finch.
The woman said she managed to wriggle her hands free from the belt that had been used to bind them.
“They had left the front door open and as soon as I got up, I closed it and called the police, I could see them running down the hill still.”
Minutes later, she saw a neighbour’s son walking past her home and alerted him.
“He say ‘Moms doh say that nah, I cyar believe they do you that,” and he come and stay with us till the police reach. He told the police of the car he had seen the men getting into.”
Freeport police were able to quickly track and capture the men as the getaway vehicle belonged to one of the couple’s neighbours.
“I can’t believe he would do that to us, I have always been nice and helpful to him, his house was burned down about six weeks ago, I gave him an extension for electricity so he could cut wood and ply to build back a house.”
Police recovered all the items except the DVD player and the bull finch and arrested the three men involved.
But the woman’s worries were not over.
The next day, when she and her husband went to the Freeport police station to give official statements, someone broke into their house.
“My son came home from school, saw the front door open and the TV missing, he called me and asked where I was and I told him we would come home in a little while, then he told me we had been robbed again.”
This time the thieves stole a 43-inch smart TV, a gas tank, a spray can, the woman’s pressure testing machine, an extension cord and groceries.
“They climbed in through the toilet and carried the things through the front door.”
But what hurt the woman even more is that another of her neighbour’s’s was responsible.
“They held three of them on Thursday, the same boy who told me what car the men had left in was involved, I can’t believe that either and I always treated him like a son.”
Police were able to recover all of the stolen items from the second robbery and all six men will appear before a Chaguanas magistrate tomorrow.
Hell in St Helena
Bandits ran rampant in St Helena last week, striking three business places over a four-day period and making off with thousands of dollars in cash and other valuables.
However, business owners and residents admitted yesterday that these attacks by bandits are not a new trend. Rather, they say recent development within the community has attracted the criminal element, who have been targeting business places and random individuals alike.
St Helena has moved from being a sleepy village to a bustling business area in recent years. With this development have come the criminals. Residents and business owners are now calling on the police to also increase their strength in the area to match the influx.
During the recent spate of robberies last week, the first to take place on the mile-long stretch was on Monday at 11.15 am. Two gunmen entered Pro Digital Wholesalers and tied up the male staff member on duty before they stole telephones and other electronic items. The haul was valued at $40,000.
Yesterday, Pro Digital owner Richard Le Maitre said the situation in St Helena has become “scary”. This is the second time his business place has been robbed since it recently relocated.
It was previously located at the St Helena junction but was relocated because they were robbed several times there.
Le Maitre said he had put several security measures in place to try and thwart would-be criminals, including installing security cameras. There is also a sign on the door advising that persons wearing caps would not be allowed entry in.
Following the attack on Pro Digital, on Wednesday night three bandits robbed the nearby Royal Castle outlet, which is obliquely opposite Pro Digital. According to reports, around 7 pm the gunmen announced a hold-up at the fast food outlet, took the cash register drawer and escaped with an undisclosed sum of money. The following night (Thursday), the Kentucky Fried Chicken outlet located at the St Helena junction was targeted. Around 9.05 pm, two gunmen entered the restaurant, jumped over the counter, pointed a firearm at the cashier and announced a robbery. They escaped with a quantity of cash from the vault and the cash register.
All three business places are on the major road servicing the community.
Business owner Lorna Nurse, 76, who operates a Bmobile outlet in the area, is no stranger to the rising crime there. Nurse said she has been operating there for the past 14 years but crime really started to rise in the last five years.
Around 2 am one day in February was the last time Nurse experienced a break-in. Bandits are so emboldened they are not even using stealth any more, she said.
“They used a pickaxe to break in the front door. When we came in the morning all that was left were the tiles on the floor,” Nurse said.
Nurse has alarm systems and sensors installed. Yesterday, she spoke to the Sunday Guardian from behind a heavily burglar- proofed, cage-like structure.
The entire establishment is now fortified because of the robberies.
Nurse said she runs has been robbed four times and like Le Maitre, she changed location within the area because she was being robbed regularly. The worst attack was when one of her female workers was alone and gunmen entered and tied her up while they ransacked the place.
“That really rocked me because she is just a young woman trying to make ends meet, coming to work and being placed in this kind of situation. It is not right,” Nurse said.
Nurse believes the only reason she was spared last week was because she was out of stock of new phones.
“It’s really bad. I’m sure every business in this area has been affected by crime in one way or another,” she said.
All of the businesses the Sunday Guardian spoke to had their own tales about the criminal element.
Nurse was in praise of the Las Lomas police who she said has always responded in a timely fashion to her plights. She, however, called for more police patrols in the community.
One of the things that makes St Helena such an easy target for the criminals is that they have several escape routes to several parts of the country.
Vinny Mohammed, of M&M Poultry, said while his business has only been targeted by shoplifters he knows other businesses have been affected by gun-toting bandits.
“We have cameras in place and still they just steal without any care,” he said.
But the crime is not limited to the businesses.
Visham Khodai said he walked out of his home to get something from a nearby store one evening about three years ago and was greeted by a gunman on the major road.
“It was an early evening after work and I walked out and this man pointed a gun in my face asking for money,” Khodai said.
Khodai said when he saw the gun he fell backwards and somehow the gunman ran off. Khodai thanked God for that.
“I see life-changing here, it was a quiet community and now it has become a target for thieves. This place is becoming hell,” he said adding he is now sceptical about leaving his house after dark.
