A police corporal whose home was burglarized on Friday, June 12 said that three persons have come forward to say that they too have been victims of recent break-and enters.

Officer Martin James said that these persons are living within the same geographic area, where his home is located and have suggested that the bandits may be from Agard/ Morne Du Don.

James said while the police have not been able to recover any of the stolen items, the story which was published by St. Lucia News Online (SNO) has raised some level of awareness.

He said because the story was made public, people in his community, especially neighbours are now putting measures in place to prevent any burglaries and are now more vigilant.

The officer said he remains hopeful that the police will catch the bandits.

James discovered that his Green View, Morne Du Don home was burglarized at about 9:00 p.m. Friday. The officer and his family had left their home around 7:45 a.m.

The bandits took several pieces of jewelry, two television sets and a new audio system, among other items. He said the majority of the jewels carry the initials MAT or LAT.

James told SNO that the bandits made their way in through a partially opened window which is located in the upper flat of his home.

He believes however that the bandits may have been monitoring him and his family to know exactly when to hit his home.

Anyone who might have information about the persons responsible for the burglary, or who may come across the stolen items is asked to contact the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) on 456-3758.
