Resident chases off armed burglar from Lower Valley home

| 09/04/2024 | 28 Comments

(CNS): Police have opened an investigation into a home invasion at an address in Lower Valley, Bodden Town, around 8pm on Sunday evening. Police officers who responded to the call-out were told that a man had entered the home of the complainant, armed with what is believed to be a firearm, and demanded money. The complainant pushed the man back outside. The man then ran to the rear of the residence and fled the scene on foot.

Police searched the surrounding area but the man was not located. No injuries were reported and no items were reported stolen from the scene.

The man was of slim build, around 5’5” tall, with dark complexion and a Jamaican accent. He was wearing black pants and a dark coloured shirt, and his face was partially covered.

Police asked anyone with information to contact the Criminal Investigations Department at 949-4222. Anonymous tips can be provided to the RCIPS Confidential Tip Line at 949-7777 or the website. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to caymancrimestoppers.com.

      Isn’t that the truth of it? Why is it the truth of it? I’ll tell you. Because they don’t have to live at the level that you and me do. Nope. They live at a level where people are protected from the likes of you and me.

    I don’t believe it, firearms are illegal in Cayman. Why would a criminal break the law?

    Government need to reconsider letting so many people from Jamaica reside here. They are ruining our quality of life and making Cayman a little Jamaica parish.

      Caymanians need to stop taking hiring people of questionable or unknown background. this money making scheme of having people pay for their permits is a huge contributor to crime but Caymanians don’t want to acknowledge that but pointing the fingers elsewhere is easier I guess.

      Jamaicans have the ability to wreck any place which previously had law and order.

      People talking about too many Jamaicans here ruining these islands(which are very true) but the police are hiring more and more of them in police service, (they dont arrest or prosecute their own) same thing in schools and others are doing the same hiring more of them, what’s wrong with Caymanians, have they lost their senses and gone mad or what ?

    We should have nonlethal self-defence tools at our disposal. The bad guys have the good stuff, but we aren’t allowed stun guns or capsicum spray. Terrible state of affairs.

      visit any hardware store, check out the lawn care or kitchen section and you will find an array of very lethal self defense tools.

        Yes, but along with the legal tools is the legislation that allows you to use them defencively without prosecution.

        Go ahead and use the wasp spray, blind someone, and watch the judiciary allow the ******* crook to sue you.

        We MUST have a framework for self defence

      the criminal element has already taken root and we’re reaping the fruits of it. decades of neglect from leadership, lenient sentencing and overall poor parenting from a sub section of Caymanians are to blame.

    Helicopter with Fancy FLIR technology would have been helpful. Maybe we need a third one.

      Seen one land yesterday in little cayman, police truck pulled up, someone jumped out of the helicopter with what I sure was a bag full of to-go containers, hand it over to the cop from the truck. Helicopter took off and headed towards Grand, truck drove off down the road.
      Great use of government resources.

          reminds me of Covid, Little Cayman whole island tested negative but the helicopter flew in and said social distancing, isn’t it ironic…..the vectors of the virus 🦠 physically flying over to enforce and spread..

        secret is out, Air Operations Unit is not effective. Huge waste of money, massive..they constantly fly too low in breach of civil aviation rules and….where are they at in relation to finding the mass shooter ..sell the copters, get a few drones and reallocate the tax dollars.
