FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Temporary Closure of the Willikies Police Station
St. John’s, Antigua and Barbuda, Tuesday, October 28, 2025
The Police Administration wishes to inform the general public that the Willikies Police Station has been temporarily closed to the public due to infrastructural issues affecting the facility.
In the interest of the safety and well-being of the officers assigned to that station, the decision to close the facility was taken in collaboration with the Police Welfare Association and will remain in effect until further notice.
As a result, officers attached to the Willikies Police Station have been temporarily relocated to the Parham and Freetown Police Stations.
Residents of Willikies, Glanvilles, Seatons, Pares, and other surrounding areas may still contact the Willikies Police Station at 463-2000 or the Parham Police Station at 463-2060 to file complaints or request police assistance.
Additionally, persons who are on bail and were instructed to report to the Willikies Police Station as part of their bail conditions are now required to report to the Parham Police Station.
In the interim, the Police Administration has implemented measures to ensure increased patrols throughout the affected areas to maintain law and order and safeguard the welfare of residents.
The Police Administration regrets any inconvenience this temporary closure may cause and assures the public that the safety and security of all citizens remain a top priority.
The Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda sincerely thanks the residents of Willikies and the neighboring communities for their cooperation and support as efforts are being made to resolve the issue and restore full operations at the Willikies Police Station as soon as possible.
