Man jump from building during raid by S.V.B.

Philipsburg:-- An illegal immigrant of Haitian decent jumped from the third floor of a building when he noticed members of the police department and Operation Trust 2 conducting a raid at several construction sites.
Police spokesman Johan Janchi Leonard said the incident occurred around 11am at the construction site next to FATUM N.V and Church Hill Round about in Cul de Sac.

Leonard said an illegal man working on that site saw the police-officers approaching and did not want to be caught. He said the man took a very serious risk and jumped from the third floor of that building. As a result of the impact to his legs, he received a fractured right leg. He was treated on the scene by paramedics and then transported to the St Maarten medical Center for further treatment. The contractor responsible for this worker has been contacted by the S.V.B for further handling of this case.
