Gunmen on the run after police chase
(CNS): Police are looking for two men, at least one of whom has a gun, who escaped officers following an unsuccessful police chase Tuesday. RCIPS officers responded to a report that a man had brandished a firearm at a woman at a residence in Red Bay and then left in a vehicle along with another man. Firearms officers caught up with the suspect vehicle, which pulled into the yard of a private residence along South Sound Road and collided with a wall.
The two male suspects got out of the vehicle and ran towards the rear of the premises onto the beach, and then made their way into a dense bush area on the landside. The police seized the vehicle and an extensive search was conducted by officers from several units for the suspects, but they were not located, police said.
One suspect was about 5’10”, of fair complexion and with a plaited hairstyle. He was dressed in a white t-shirt, blue jeans shorts and black slippers. The other suspect was about 5’8″, of slim build and dark complexion with a plaited hairstyle. He was dressed in black jeans shorts and a black t-shirt.
No shots were fired and no one was hurt in the latest incident of gun-related crime.

The RCIPS officers are possibly the only people on the planet that cant catch COVID!!
RCIP are huge joke! Can’t catch a subject in slippers? O yes, cops don’t want to get dirty or too sweaty. Pathetic!!! Trillion bucks for helicopters and police force. A wasted resources
I don’t think cops could find where bathroom is
Vanished, like your property values
Cinderella, is that you?
Wow, must wow. They got away when the cops could seal off each end. Unbelievable! More like they gave up cos it too hot.
This is EXACTLY the case. Don’t want to get their uniform dirty. Heard this first hand from a cop.
Sad to say over 20 million in helicopters sitting here on the island. Not sure if i missed the first round of them getting on seen. First time i saw the Helicopter show up was at least 20 minutes after they closed the road. Sell the helicopters and invest in something else. Seems the only thing they are good for is the odd drug bust.
A $3000 drone would do a better job
In the Bush they escaped from has long straight roads on 3 sides.
Did the police cars that must have been parked on Linford Pierson, Old Crewe Road not see anything?
and even a cub scout can follow a trail through thick brush, especially when people are running.
The said they did an extensive search, it would be interesting to see if this search was in the back garden
That truly should have been like fishing in a barrel, unfortunately you have to be bothered to catch the fish and not just stare at the barrel and expect the public to fish for you.
also were the police chasing the suspects in a reasonable physical shape? could these active patrolling police still pass the RCIP entrance fitness test?
The police on this island are a sad group of individuals. They really have zero idea. Which is sad, scary, upsetting and disappointing all in one.
They got away wearing flip flops? Seriously !n
@1:05am and pants to the ground, no doubt.
Time to call in the Regiment Martyn.
What wonderful, seasonal headlines today, as we approach Christmas! My beloved Cayman of today!!
As recently as a dozen years ago all we had to worry about around these times were drunk drivers!
Thanks McKeeva!
At least Kurt got then chasing people. Good start Kurt.
>man on slippers escapes multi-million dollar police force with 2 state-of-the-art helicopters and K9 units by running into bush with clearly defined perimeters.
Welcome to Cayman – tourists don’t worry, our criminals only focused on other criminals. Our police are too busy issuing tickets for doing 8 mph over.
“Our police are too busy issuing tickets for doing 8 mph over.”
but only twice a year for an hour or so, at the same spots.
Got to get some slippers, so I can bring my 10k time down, I wonder if Slippers will be banned from the next Olympics, for their apparent speed advantage
There was the “Great Escape”, this is more like Apathy Escape”
And queue the Benny Hill theme.
Wait up. Someone in slippers evaded police? I mean, that’s determination right there!
Why wasn’t the K-9 unit dispatched ? – oh yeah, I forgot.
They were in slippers…. and they got away (SMH)
Unsuccessful police chase? Where is K9? Helicopters?
helicopters were there, but what do you expect from our police force? Just another day of uselessness
Maybe they left the slippers behind, what a weird story.,
The helicopter was up for a couple of hours in the area 🤷♀️. They killed the K9 dog by not giving it water and leaving it in the heat to die. Cruel. 🙈 No news on who was responsible for that
let’s just say the person looking after the dog while someone was on holiday didn’t actually look after the dog. and yet who did cmr blame? not the correct person.
