Basseterre, St. Kitts, March 20, 2022 (RSCNPF): The Police have determined that the fire at the Joshua Obadiah Williams Primary School was intentionally carried out and the search for the perpetrator(s) is underway.
Assistant Commissioner of Police (ACP) with responsibility for Crime, Andre Mitchell, visited the scene with a team of senior investigators the day after the fire (March 19, 2022). ACP Mitchell described the fire as a malicious act.
“Preliminary investigations so far have revealed that the fire was no accident. We have identified the areas in which several fires were lit.

A vigorous investigation is being conducted to find, and bring to justice, the person or persons responsible for this crime,” ACP Mitchell stated.
