On Tuesday, July 1, 2025, patrol officers of the Sint Maarten Police Force (KPSM) responded to a report of loitering and public disturbance at the Premier Supermarket.
Upon arrival at the location, officers encountered a group of individuals gathered in front of the
business establishment, reportedly drinking and loitering. In accordance with public order
protocols and to ensure the safety and comfort of the community and surrounding businesses, the
officers engaged with the individuals involved.
A total of six (6) persons were addressed by the patrol and instructed to vacate the premises. The
individuals complied without incident.
KPSM reminds the public that loitering, particularly in front of commercial establishments, can
lead to discomfort for patrons, obstruct access, and contribute to public nuisance. The
community is encouraged to respect the use of public spaces and to cooperate with law
enforcement in maintaining order and safety.
The Sint Maarten Police Force remains committed to maintaining a safe and welcoming
environment for all residents, business owners, and visitors and will continue to monitor and
respond to similar reports across all districts in its effort to uphold public safety and community
well-being. Community cooperation is key to achieving this goal.
