The Police know exactly who the vendors of these devices are

- Dear Editor, Sincerely, Clairmont Lye

I would like to add my voice to those of persons who have complained about the noise made by firecracke­rs. I have complained about this for years here in Lethem but have never got any satisfacti­on. There is a law against such noise nuisances - whether it is from firecracke­rs, or vehicles without exhausts, or loud music – yet nothing is done by the Police. Two weeks ago, loud music could be heard for many hours, several blocks away. And just Monday morning at 2.15 am, a vehicle was playing loud music, and in violation of the curfew hours. The Police should know exactly who are the vendors of these devices as well as the perpetrato­rs of the offences. Both elderly people and dogs are affected. Why, year after year, is no action taken?
