The Guardian: "The outspoken chief of Antigua's police force has been sacked as the Caribbean island struggles to cope with a wave of violent crime, including last month's murder of a honeymoon couple from south Wales.
Gary Nelson, a former Canadian mountie, was relieved of his duties by Baldwin Spencer, the prime minister of Antigua and Barbuda, six months after taking up the job, with a two-year mandate to crack down on gun crime. A police spokesman in Antigua's capital, St John's, confirmed his dismissal: 'I have just spoken to him and I am hearing that he was fired.'"
