    Re: St James State of Emergency

    I want to first say we are not scared to travel but want to say what just happened to us. We traveled from a Mobay to treasue Beach on Friday (still here) and just outside White House we roll up to what our driver thinks is an accident but turns out to be a Jamaican was just shot and truck stolen (minutes before we arrive). He is bleeding, coughing up blood but was moving extremities. They were loading him in a van to get him to Black River. This was on the main road. Our driver was worried we would be afraid and continued to tell us stuff like this doesn’t happen in TB and rarely are tourist in Jamaica harmed. It was scary to think only if we were minutes sooner we would have seen what happened. Just was a crazy Experience.
