‘Spoil Child’ among two held after police operation
Former policeman Teon Allen and another man were arrested yesterday after a failed attempt to elude police ended with them crashing their car onto the parapet of a Rahaman’s Park, Houston property yesterday afternoon.
Police Commander of Region Four A (AgricolaCummings Lodge) Marlon Chapman yesterday confirmed the arrest. He noted that one of the men was shot during the operation and a firearm was found in the vehicle they were travelling in.
At the time he spoke with this newspaper, Chapman said ranks were still at the scene, where the arrest was made while the men had been taken into custody.
A video posted on Facebook showed the conclusion of the operation after the car in which Allen and his companion were travelling in crashed onto the parapet of the Rahaman’s Park property.
Following the crash, several armed policemen moved towards the vehicle and arrested the men.
Allen has had multiple brushes with the law in wake of his law enforcement career.
In September, police issued a wanted bulletin for Allen, called ‘Spoil Child,’ in connection with the attempted murder of two women, Denise Grant and Tiffany Mc Deth. He subsequently surrendered and faced a charge for allegedly discharging a loaded firearm. He was later released on bail.
In October, he was the target of a shooting at La Penitence Market. Two men have since been charged with trying to kill him.
In August, 2017, Allen was charged with harbouring wanted men Mark Royden Williams and Uree
Varswyck – who had escaped from the Camp Street Prison on July 9, 2017.
In January of the same year, Allen was among three men who were charged with the illegal possession of an AK-47 and matching ammunition.
They were taken into custody after the items were found by the police during a raid at a John Street, Campbellville house.
Allen was also charged in relation to several other offences, including armed robbery.
