CCN scooped; Express crime reporter is in trouble now

A Trinidad Express reporter and a CCN TV6 cameraman were part of a quartet that tried to rob a rum shop on Sunday night. But, although a TV6 company van was allegedly used for the caper, today’s Express report was shy with the details.

So, Express readers who appreciate being kept abreast of such matters were forced to turn to the Trinidad Guardian for information.

In Express‘ defence, Wired868 understands its crime reporter was unavoidably detained and unable to file a report himself.
