The situation in Westbury has been described as 'volatile' and a 'no-go zone' during a shutdown after the murder of an alleged gang leader believed to have operated in the area.
Westbury community leader Bishop Dulton Adams was reluctant to speak about Ebrahim's death but confirmed the situation was volatile and the community had become a “no-go zone”.
“Communities are under siege. The mothers are traumatised, the children are more traumatised. It's affecting schools, churches and businesses.” He spoke about the broader effect gun violence had on communities like Westbury, Eldorado Park and Newclare, saying it was bad that families feared going out because of stray bullets.
