22-year-old charged in relation to recent nightclub shooting incident
Shortly after 1:45 AM on the day in question, officers responded to reports of gunfire in the vicinity of the business establishment.
Initial reports indicate that two masked individuals approached a group near the club, prompting one individual to flee into the establishment. The masked individuals then discharged several rounds. A search of the surrounding area recovered eight spent shell casings, five .223 calibre and three .40 calibre.
The RVIPF, in a press release today, May 7, 2025, said that, following further investigations, one male individual was arrested. He has since been formally charged.
Jamari Scatliffe, 22, of John’s Hole, has been charged with Possession of a Firearm with Intent to put Another in Fear; Unlawful Possession of Explosives; and Attempted Robbery.

40. If you value your life stay out of or far away from that night club. The only things that stays open after midnight is legs, jail and the emergency room.Stay your a.. home and go to sleep you will be much better off.
Must have .
had a hard life.
If the BVI choose to convict and incarcerate
he will have rest and relaxation at our expense. Considering that there is no vacancy at the prison, he will be eventually enjoy a trial at our expense sometime in this century and sooner rather than later released somehow,free to continue his community terror. We are all victims and sitting ducks of this playtime justice in these VI.
, he will be resting in luxury
