BELLE VUE, Tortola, VI- Reports reaching Virgin Islands News Online indicate that a rider of a motor scooter suffered injuries after slamming into a goat in the Belle Vue area of Tortola today, March 28, 2020.

    Lock him up!! After the arm treatment toss him behind bars until the the next court date. He had no call being on the road. Hope the poor goat doesn’t go to waste. He should have listened to the Government rules and regulations.

        He is not an essential worker, but an essential law breaker. I hope the law deal with him accordingly as some people believe they are above the law.

    I don’t feel one ounce of anything for the scooter rider. I feel sorry for the innocent goat. I wish there was someway the scooter rider could be charged for animal cruelty and murder of the goat. Freaking set of stupid ingrates riding around like idiots. Don’t be surprise if all the damn scooters on the Island start to mysteriously blow up when the fools turn them on.

      How would you know? Teenagers all over the world do stupid things. Their brains are not fully developed until 26. Grant it he is wrong for be out assming he is not an essential worker, but you too are in the wrong to put every boy from BelleVue in same category. An if they are, maybe it is becuase of the paint brush you all paint them with from the time they come out of the womb and the prejudice you all have against them in school, employment etc.

      Some of your people on Tortola behave as if God made you all judge and jury. Say a pray for folks and keep moving, your stuff stinks too!

    The hospital should refuse treatment for the scum. He should be charged with murder of a innocent animal. Honestly, if I was passing by I would have try to render assistance to the goat and drive my car over the scooter rider breaking his other arm and continue on my merry way.

    I hope that by tomorrow the headline will be "Scooter Rider Charged"
    1. Breaking the curfew
    2. Driving without a valid drivers license.
    3, Driving without insurance coverage
    4. Cruelty to animal
    All these charges should attract maximum fines.
    The other guys should also be identified and charged accordingly.
    Lets go officers, get to work and make an example of them.

    Goat murderer, he should be held for cruelty of a innocent animal. He had to be speeding when he slam into the goat. More than likely the goat was pregnant. I agree, If I was driving by, I would have try to help the goat and crush the scooter to pieces with with my truck.

    Bellevue is going to go under quarantine soon. The only ones I will feel sorry for is the young children and the elderly. These guys don’t care about their community. By them being out side all times of the night thinking they are immune from the virus, the joke is on them. Those boys from Bellevue is nothing but problems. Most of them is out here plotting to rob businesses that is closed or the small mom and pop businesses that is still open.
