Less than 24-hours after the Virgin Islands Police Department held a briefing addressing the recent surge in violent crime, a 17-year-old boy was shot and killed in the territory’s 36th homicide of the year. And the legislature is working to transfer five million dollars in funds to ensure the continued operation of the territory’s public transportation system, after a miscommunication left VITRAN unfunded. Listen to these stories and more.
