      About 2 weeks ago I posted about a house fire that took place in the island of New Providence killing a family of 6. This was house fire was under investigation because it believe to be a murder. It was about a year or so that another house fire took place in this same community killing a family of over 4 persons. But sad to say the police have reported that there isn't any evidence of murder in house fire killing a family of 6.

    It was good to have NBA championship team in The Bahamas to start there training camp for this upcoming NBA season. I am glad they pick The Bahamas despite that they wasn't able to see and tour The Bahamas. I hoped their stayed was wonderful and enjoyable, and choose to come back here not just for training but for vacation.

    How did this 9 year old first and foremost leave his home to go to the airport. Then for him to be able to pass thru Airport Security Personnel, this is really weird. I am happy he was caught and is said to be back home but this need to go under investigation. Did should hold is parents very much responsible for this and find out what was the boy reason to go to Las Vegas, and how he was able to escaped from his home and go to the airport, without an adult. This is very serious, but thank God he is home safely.
