Intense urban growth and expansion has lead to overcrowding and another dreadful phenomena-VAGRANCY. In Port of Spain, vagrancy is an issue which is steadily increasing at alarming rates. They are usually the consequences of dangerous drug abuse (cocaine and other narcotics). In my third blog post I made mention of the amounts that were observed in our capital and the disgust that a person would experience. Furthermore the vagrants may be mentally unstable and can spontaneously attack. The picture above shows a vagrant walking on the highway leading into the capital. The presence of the Beetham landfill in such close proximity to the capital is also a contributing factor for the amount of vagrants present. http://www.newsday.co.tt/news/0,148645.html
