Then-Governor-elect Albert Bryan in December 2018 spoke at a prayer vigil organized by the VI Clergy Peace Coalition, which was held at the Frederiksted Vegetable Market following deadly shootings on St. Croix at the time..
Governor Albert Bryan on Sunday issued the following statement concerning the recent shooting incidents on St. Croix:
“There are few words to express the outrage and the hurt our community feels this morning because of the callous and reckless actions of those who chose to reign terror on our streets this weekend.
“We are dealing with enough as a community. We do not need to add this level of senseless gun crime to the challenges confronting our community. This is not who we are or what we stand for.
“I pray for the victims and their loved ones and plead with those members of our community with information to come forward so that we can bring swift justice to the perpetrators of these senseless crimes.”
