Recent incidents have highlighted the urgent need for stronger controls. The Guana-Bay Community Police Officer is currently looking for the owner of a brown/white pit bull, who has been involved in multiple attacks in various neighborhoods.

Every pet owner should behave responsibly to ensure the safety of residents and visitors. It is the latter's responsibility to take the necessary measures to prevent his animal from becoming a threat to public safety.

If the owner of the brown/white pit bull does not cooperate or neglects their responsibilities, the police will take the necessary measures to resolve this dangerous situation.

The St. Maarten Police Department urges anyone with information about the identity of the owner of the brown/white pit bull to come forward and provide this vital information to authorities. _AF
