Shamall Turnbull Sr., 39, was arrested and charged with destruction to property-domestic violence, the Virgin Islands Police Department said. The case began at 5:45 a.m. Saturday, when the 911 Emergency Call Center received a report of a domestic disturbance in progress at Carib Villas Apartments in Golden Rock, according to the VIPD.
Responding officers met with the victim at the scene who stated that “Turnbull came to her apartment and caused a disturbance,” VIPD spokeswoman Kishma Chichester said. “He became enraged and damaged her screen door. He also took her iPad away preventing her from calling 911,” Chichester said. “The victim said she ran to a neighbor for assistance and called 911.”
