The police in Portland are urging residents to be cautious and consider certain risks if faced with a repeat of Monday’s arrival of 37 Haitian nationals.
The group, comprising 29 adults, five boys and three girls, landed on the Boston Beach aboard a small boat and were assisted by residents before the authorities arrived.
Commanding Officer for the Portland police division, Superintendent Lloyd Darby, while commending the residents for their kindness extended, he said citizens should be careful of the risk of persons among the group who might be armed, and also the possibility of the risk of infectious diseases.
