fight against crime by improving the effectiveness of foot and mobile police
patrols. Mr. Flowers had the following message for the residents of San Pedro.
"I ask the residents of this island to be more observant and alert in caring for
their homes and property. I urge members of this community to report illegal,
suspicious and clandestine activities they see or know of in their area. In
particular, areas of drug trafficking, theft or crimes against personal
properties and crimes against the well-being of our society." Mr. Linden Flowers is married and the father of four
children. He replaces Assistant Superintendent of Police Michael Gutierrez. The
San Pedro Sun joins the residents of this
island in welcoming Assistant Inspector of Police Linden Flowers to the San
