LONG BUSH, Tortola, VI- In its rush to being first it seems, new kid on the block Guavaberry Media Inc created some unnecessary hysteria today, October 13, 2023, when it falsely reported of a shooting in Long Bush and that two persons had been injured.
It has since been clarified that there was a simulated armed robbery exercise at the BVI Electricity Corporation (BVIEC) office in Long Bush.
BVIEC has since put out a notice of the simulation exercise.
“This morning at approximately 11:45 a.m. the BVI Electricity Corporation in collaboration with the Royal Virgin Islands Police Force and the Emergency Professionals from the D. Orlando Smith Hospital executed a simulated armed robbery exercise. A full press release will follow,” BVIEC posted on its Facebook page.
Guavaberry Media Inc has since deleted its erroneous article.

When did that become a thing?? I hope customers were not present cause I would hate someone to have s heart attack during such a exercise.
If BVI Electricity did not put out a notice to say they would have a simulated arm robbery exercise, anybody would think its for real. Anybody would be scared for their life.
Look at how y'all just bashing the girl who is trying to do something positive with her life and her business. Its a misunderstanding. Come on man!
Long Bush already has a bad name so something like this in not good .Residents should have been notified even if not all the details They killed all the business for the remainder of the day and evening
To tell the truth the owe the residents an apology
