One in custody following boat chase by BVI and US authorities

A person whose identity has not yet been made public was taken into custody following boat chase that ended in BVI waters today.
The chase was the result of a joint operation between the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force (RVIPF) and US federal authorities.

This is according to the Information Unit of the RVIPF who released a brief statement moments ago.

“The operation is still live and ongoing, therefore, no other information can be provided at this time,” the police stated.

While the police have not provided further details, BVI News understands that part their operation took place near Frenchman’s Cay on Tortola.
