Parking facilities at National Stadium secure, says Independence Park Limited

General Manager of Independence Park Limited, Major Desmon Brown, is seeking to assuring the public that parking facilities provided by the entity at the National Stadium are secure.

In a release today, Brown said that the vehicles allegedly damaged at the Reggae Boyz football match against Honduras at the National Stadium on Monday were not parked within the stadium parking areas.

A viral video showing several cars with damaged windows has been making the rounds on social media platforms, with some users calling out security and parking arrangements for persons attending events at the stadium.

The police yesterday reported that they have so far received three incident reports.

Two of the reports were for break-ins and stolen property and the other was for a car that was stolen, which was recovered.

An appeal was made to other victims to come forward and file a report.

Brown said independence park stands ready to work with the Jamaica Football Federation (JFF) as well as other event organisers and the Jamaica Constabulary Force to find ways of securing vehicles parked outside of its secured parking facilities.

“In the meantime, I support the JFF's advice to patrons to use the main parking area at the National Stadium because we provide lighting and security.

“Where National Stadium parking space might not be available, event organisers should ensure alternative arrangements for secure parking,” Brown said.
