The Commonwealth of Dominica Police Force (CDPF) has confirmed the apprehension and repatriation of Jahai Grant, an adult male United States citizen wanted in the United States Virgin Islands (USVI) in connection with several firearm- and drug-related offences.
Grant was taken into custody in Dominica and has been returned to the USVI to face the charges against him. The operation brings to a close a search for a man who was sought by authorities across the border on serious criminal allegations.
The CDPF's announcement confirms that the matter was handled through the proper repatriation process, with Dominican officers carrying out the apprehension before the transfer to USVI custody. The force has not, in the material available, detailed the specific charges or the dates on which the offences are alleged to have occurred.
Cross-border cooperation of this kind is a routine part of regional policing, and the Dominica case reflects the working relationship between Caribbean law enforcement agencies and their counterparts in the wider region. Residents with information about crime are encouraged to contact the nearest police station or the CDPF directly.
