Burglars make off with safe after home invasion
(CNS): Two masked men made off with a safe from a house in South Sound, following a home invasion Tuesday afternoon. The homeowner, who lives on Anne Bonny Crescent, interrupted the burglars as they were prying out the bolted-down home safe with a crowbar. The homeowner was forced into another room and locked in. The assailants then took the safe, which contained documents and other personal items, and left in a black sedan.
Police said the victim was uninjured during the ordeal, which happened at around 3pm in the usually quiet residential neighbourhood.
One of the assailants was described as tall, of medium build, with a dark complexion, and a t-shirt covering his face. The man who carried the crowbar man also had a dark complexion but was short, of slim build.
Detectives in charge of the investigation are appealing for information from the public that may assist with locating the suspects and the stolen properties.
Anyone with information is asked to call the George Town Police Station at 949-4222. Anonymous tips can be provided directly to the RCIPS Confidential Tip Line at 949-7777, or to the website.

Cayman is too dangerous and corrupt, we’re leaving.
Corrupt maybe but dangerous? Get a grip, it’s one of the safest places on earth!
I just gotta laugh whenever unna ‘threaten’ to return from wherever you came from. Like hello, please do!
please leave today 🙂
Inside job! Careful who you let in your home.
Better still , be careful who you let into your Country.
True. Caymanians don’t have the brains to do this sort of thing according to our own commentators!
What low lives.
What a bunch of idiots.
Why didnt they make him open the safe?
Her.
It doesn’t say if the second man was wearing a face mask. And did either of them take a lateral flow test before entering? It’s very important that the police take a zero tolerance approach to burglars not adhering to covid laws.
Hope the million dollar cameras capture the getaway car?
Can we see the film please?
Not yet, it’s probably still being developed
We know the cameras don’t work in the dark, but they also don’t work when facing the sun.
Obviously someone that had been in the house before tipped these guys off. Shouldn’t be too difficult to follow the breadcrumbs.
We could even check the CCTV cameras and the data in relation to the machine readable license plates, right Eric?
Franz, are you starting to have any understanding and insight into the damage that has been going on, under your nose and in our name, for years?
While he is contemplating his role in our accelerating descent into chaos and ruin, perhaps he could explain whether any expatriate prison officers who are known to have smuggled drugs into the prison are still employed on full benefits including non contributory 12% pension contributions, while sitting at home, several months after being caught.
Prudent stewards of the public purse?
Why would he care, the cheques keep clearing.
Leave him alone. Didn’t he coin the term “world class.”
His predecessor Mr. McCarthy served the post honorably. Perhaps he could come back and help right the ship.
Dan Scott. Or Dan Scott.
Those are realistically the only viable choices.
It would also be good if their mandate could be to implement the EY report.
No thanks!
Dan, please reconsider. Your Islands need you!
I think that question should be addressed to Mac.
From the Dubai or Delaware office?
That could be a hundred people. Then there’s actually proving who it was. Then there’s the fact that telling someone that someone has a safe isn’t actually illegal. Unfortunately going to be harder than you imagine.
True but isn’t that abetting in a crime?
Black sedan, south sound area at 3pm, pull the mobile data and find an exact match.
It’s not exactly difficult.
8.25am Dont forget their description “dark complexion” – they will stand out like a sore thumb!.
