JCF warns against New Year's Day gun salute

The Jamaica Constabulary Force (JCF) is warning the public against gun salutes as part of New Year celebrations.

The JCF says not only is this illegal but also dangerous.

“Remember, what goes up must come down - celebrate responsibly to avoid serious injuries or worse,” the force said in a post on X, formerly Twitter.

The JCF says cops will be on standby to respond to any incidents.

“Ring in the New Year safely! …Let's welcome 2025 with joy, not danger.”
