Both officers suffered minor injuries and are reportedly in stable condition.

Authorities are urging motorists to exercise caution, particularly in areas where law enforcement is responding to incidents. The Royal Saint Lucia Police Force has not released further details on the incidents, but sources confirm that both officers are recovering well. Investigations are ongoing.
