Intruder touches sleeping child in early hours
(CNS): Police are investigating a report that a man entered a condo in the early hours of Sunday morning and inappropriately touched a child who was asleep in a bedroom with a parent. The incident happened around 2:30am at a condo located north of Earth Close off the West Bay Road. The intruder startled both the parent and child awake and he fled from the room and out through the back door of the unit. The man was described as having dark skin and a small beard and was wearing a black bandana.
The intruder may have entered another condo in the same complex shortly before this incident as he fitted the description of a man who was briefly in the unit but left as soon as he was seen by one of the occupants.
No physical injuries were reported as a result of either incident.
The RCIPS are investigating the incident and ask that if anyone saw anyone suspicious in the area between 1am and 3am on Sunday to report it to the police.

Dark skin, a small beard and a bandana, well that narrows it down a bit
Something tells me such a brief description means they have given up searching for him.
I also expect a traumatized child to give a detailed description of their assailant
Whilst the Judges should provide the harshest penalty available, and call for increased penalties, it is more so the overpaid and inept lawmakers (AKA members of parliament) that have shown they have no concern for increasing penalties for these types of crimes.
These lawmakers are working for the fundamentalist churches.
They need proof of a devil in order to convince the natives.
So these crimes have to be allowed, to show there is a devil.
Foolish comment by an idiot.
You are an absolute moron.
So lets say they catch the person. The judge will give 5 years and then reduce for 4 years for the time it took to prosecute the person plus reduce an additional 6 months for no prior record and reduce an additional 5 months for good behavior. So the perp will get 1 month in jail with these tough judges.
Close Lillie’s nightclub now, move it if you want but keep these people away from west bay road and seven mile beach permanently
Oh no. The rich hate the locals having a good time. Not everyone is a bad apple.
But there are many crimes committed, including a large proportion of the islands stabbing and murders, in recent years, outside or close to that venue in the early hours of weekend mornings. That’s just a fact.
I guarantee you he didn’t break into a home where the father was present.
ok lol cuz thats the point in all this lol
What in God’s name is wrong with these damn pedos and children?? (it’s damn disgusting)
Nuff whore and slut out there for christ sake…sick and tired of hearing about this shit 24/7.
The problem is your god and you believing the crap.
Not really. And how did this become your big issue?
If one is a law biding citizen with out any criminal record, I thought they could apply for a gun license.
By the time they finish putting you through the wringer and then add on those astronomical taxes to Import a gun, you will have lost all hope of getting it before you turn old.
Trust me Cayman is under UK suppression and they are no longer gun-friendly here for law-abiding citizens, have been that way for many years.
America is gun-friendly. How’s that working out for them?
Mass murder capital of the world. More guns than people. Want to shut down the tourist economy? Follow America’s love affair with guns.
America has its gun problems for sure. But in America if I find a strange man touching my child in my house…that person leaves in a body bag. Not saying it’s the solution but between robbers and sexual predators they’re not afraid of anything down here because there’s very little to fear
Cayman had a responsible history of gun ownership most Caymanians homes had a gun for years around the 80s the UK stepped in and made it close to impossible to own a gun on this island.
Good!
How does he get in 2 units ? Don’t people lock their doors ?
questions that need answers
Oh ya locking the doors is the problem here.
Aloud? As opposed to aquiet? Even if guns were legal, owners would by law (unless the drafters of the law were insane) be required to keep the weapon locked away and very specifically out of reach of children. So in this situation, if the gun had not already been stolen and used to commit other crimes (highly likely), it would not be in reach of the parent in bed with the child and would not have been of any use. Where guns are readily available “for protection”, gun crime goes up, gun murder goes up and gun suicides go up. Stupid idea all round.
And you for got one too….”Gov Control of You goes up”!
A fingerprint scan lock on a small gun safe within reach of the bed takes less than 5 seconds to retrieve. And your gun crime data is highly misleading. We are a fantastic example of that. Our gun crime is similar to a mid sized city of a few hundred thousand where guns are legal.
The UK government would never allow that so it’s a moot point unless the Cayman Islands are prepared to go independent. Also, learn to spell.
Good people should be aloud to have a firearm for protection.
Please not you.
*Allowed* Don’t say that aloud. But I do agree that law abiding, and trained persons, should be allowed, even encouraged to have a firearm for protection.
Yeah it’s worked out really well in other places hasn’t it
What you’ve got is working so great. No gun crime at all. Everything is perfect.
And nothing about this can go wrong
No they should not. We are based on a Uk legal system and und were outlawed in the Uk after a mass school shooting in Scotland in 1996. Guess what – that is still the last ever mass shooting in the uk, since we banned the guns. In America the allowance of guns means in the last year alone to July 2022 there has been at least one mass shooting every week.
Never mind the number of stabbings in London being astronomical. So many videos of people just stabbing rival gang members in the street in broad daylight.. the cars of peace used to commit terrorist attacks. New York the same thing; stabbings, murders, assualts.. all in a city where guns are not allowed.
When people like you realize that your fear of firearms won’t protect you from actual violence when people are ready to commit violence, it will be after something happens to you. When someone breaks into your house and you realize whether you are the fight or flight type. Trust me, as someone who watched someone break in through my window, I wish I had a firearm after that. I was once like you saying to everyone there was no need to have one. The realities of life will wake you up and soon people with money will realize the island is very small and money cannot keep them safe from violence.
But you are entitled to your opinion. Just always remember, the government doesn’t care about you. The police force doesn’t care about you. The laws don’t care about you. When seconds matter, help is minutes away. Everything in life ebbs and flows. Soon things will happen that might make you change your mind and you might be on the other side of the argument. Try not to be so sure of your position based on emotion.
SAY NO TO PRIVATE GUN OWNERSHIP.
America and their gun laws are pathetic and childish. There should be no right to arms and to defend oneself by owning firearms. The rest of the world look at the states and the NRA with utter contempt. It’s embarrassing for America (the gun laws).
America is embarrassing. PERIOD
No. We’re fine overall.
