Extractions: Caribbean Islands Caribbean Islands Police forces in the three territories were small and under British control. The British Virgin Islands Police Force consisted of a chief of police, ninety-six police officers, and three civilian officers. Most of the police were native British Virgin Islanders. The headquarters was in Road Town on Tortola. In addition to the usual crime prevention and law enforcement activities associated with a police force, the police in the British Virgin Islands were responsible for firefighting. They also operated one marine patrol craft and two launches for use in enforcing the three-nautical-mile territorial limit of the islands, for fishery protection, and for antismuggling and antidrug operations. The Anguilla Police Force was formed in 1972 to replace a detachment of the London Metropolitan Police that had served on the island since 1969, when the island seceded from the St. KittsNevis -Anguilla union. In the 1980s, the force was headed by a chief of police, who reported to the minister of home affairs. There were eighty police officers, as well as special officers who could be deputized as necessary. The force's formal duties included national security, and, as such, it operated two ships for fishery protection and antismuggling operations. Most officers were native Anguillians, but some were recruited in St. Vincent. Headquarters was in The Valley. The British operated the criminal justice system.

Extractions: Encyclopedia Virgin Islands The Virgin Islands of the United States (2000 pop. 108,612), 133 sq mi (344 sq km), are a U.S. territory. They were purchased from Denmark in 1917 for $25 million because of their strategic position alongside the approach to the Panama Canal. Under a law passed in 1954, the islands are administered by the U.S. Dept. of the Interior; a governor and senate are locally elected. Charles Turnbul 2d was elected governor in 1998 and reelected in 2002. Since 1927, residents have enjoyed U.S. citizenship, and since 1973 they have been represented in the U.S. House of Representatives by a nonvoting delegate. The capital is Charlotte Amalie on St. Thomas; other cities are Christiansted and Frederiksted, both on St. Croix. Virgin Islands National Park covers much of St. John.

Extractions: The top sports stories of 2002 BY DEAN GREENAWAY BVI sportsmen and women enjoyed another successful year in 2002. The BVI hosted regional events including the Busta Cup; Leeward Islands Jr. Track and Field Championships and the inaugural OECS Relays. Basketball was the only team sport playing in regional competition when they participated in the Caricom tournament. Track and Field athletes competed in the CAC Jr. Championships; Jr. World Championships; Commonwealth Games and CAC Games. Eric Mathias and Dion Crabbe won gold medals at the CAC Jr. Championships and CAC Games respectively. Following is a sport by sport synopsis of the year. The 2002 BVI Volleyball Association championships came to a grinding halt after Terminators and Te-Sito were thrown out of the league. Association president Karl 'Dub' Scatliffe said when the controversy boiled over, he was at the Belle Vue Gym before deciding to referee in the Summer Xplosion Tournament. "I made it clear that whatever was to happen had already happened and I didn't see the need to be there arguing for no reason. One team didn't show up, the other won by forfeiture. The next move was to play the other teams. Everything was settled at that time, so we had to do what we had to do."
