(CNS): Two men from the Dominican Republic who were apprehended by uniformed patrol officers in South Sound Monday, ahead of what appeared to be a burglary plot, have been charged with a number of offences after over 40 items of stolen loot were recovered from their home. Police are now trying to match the property, which police suspect was taken in earlier break-ins, with its rightful owners. The suspects remain in police custody and are due in court Friday.

“During the execution of a search warrant at the residence of the accused men, over forty items of what is believed to be stolen property has been recovered. Investigators are following up with recent burglaries to identify where these items are believed to be stolen from. The property includes electronic equipment, furniture, jewelry and cash,” an RCIPS spokesperson said.

The men, aged 31 and 25, are in Cayman on work-permits. They have already been charged with going equipped to steal, taking a conveyance without the owner’s consent and conspiracy to commit burglary. However, following the recovery of the loot at their residency the men are also expected to be charged with burglary as well.

A charge of providing a false name to officers has also been laid against the 31-year-old suspect.

Meanwhile, police said they are still hunting a third man in connection with what could be a burglary ring.

    My place was robbed
    the criminals were inside
    the Jamaican cop told me to shut up or he would arrest me
    The jamaican criminal said he was getting his stuff and that it was his place
    The Jamaican cop let him do as he please
    The criminal and the cop spoke some jungle jibberish I could not understand
    the issue has not been resolved Perhaps today?

        Ok Ok – but the point is that the law actually already requires the fingerprinting of foreign nationals coming here to live, and we are ignoring it.

    If it was caymanians people will have a lot to say! Some people make it seem like caymanians are the only criminals in the world but yet they come from certain place s that’s far more worst than here! racism and hatred is an ugly thing that is going to consume a lot of them up! I’m not from here but I’ve seen a lot worst than what some of my fellow expats describe the caymanian people as.

      Agreed. I am wondering where the idiot is that only contribute by typing “Caymankind” to any and every article that hints of it being a Caymanian as the culprit.

      • JimfromOhio says:

        Well maybe he feels ashamed and stupid that it wasn’t a caymanian that’s why he’s not going to bother to comment.Maybe he should have his display name as “racistkind”every time he comments on a article.
