Armed jewel heist at Camana Bay
Jewellery Store Robbery, Camana Bay from Cayman News Service on Vimeo.
(CNS) Updated with video clip: Two armed men fled on a dirt bike with an undisclosed quantity of diamonds Wednesday evening following a heist at a jewellery store in Camana Bay. Police said that they were alerted to the armed robbery at Pandora – Island Jewellers just before 8:45pm and immediately responded to the scene. One man entered the shop on the pretext of shopping for jewellery. As he was being assisted by staff, he pulled out a handgun from his bag and ordered that merchandise be placed in the bag, police said.
Armed robbery suspect No 2
During this exchange a second man, also with a handgun, entered the store and stood by the door, the RCIPS reported. The men, who did not wear masks or gloves during the robbery and spoke Spanish, left the store with a quantity of diamonds and fled on a white dirt bike in the general direction of West Bay. No one was injured in the course of the robbery and the guns were not discharged.
Armed robbery suspect No 1
Store cameras captured pictures of the robbers. The first man was about 5’8 to 5’10 and had a light complexion. He was wearing long blue jeans, white/cream-colored sneakers, a navy blue ¾ sleeve cotton T-shirt (with the writing AXNY91 on the front) and was carrying a brown shoulder bag/pouch across his body. He was also wearing a black baseball cap with grey/cream colors on the front.
The second man was also of light complexion, wearing long blue jeans, light sneakers (light blue), with a short-sleeved, dark blue T-shirt with ARMANI Exchange in white letters on it. He was also wearing a grey/blue baseball cap with a dark rectangular patch on its front.
Police are urging anyone with any information regarding the robbery or the whereabouts of the suspects and the dirt bike are asked to call the George Town Criminal Investigations Department at 949-4222 or 649-4222 or the Crime Stoppers Miami-based call centre at 800-8477(TIPS) immediately.
Nearly p133£d myself reading some of these comments.
Ps there are 124 application forms waiting at Georgetown PS because you have all solved the crime by just looking at a couple of pictures and few seconds of CCTV
Well, what ideas have YOU got, sportsfan? While we’re all busy brainstorming you’re mucking about laughing your head off at us. Not very helpful. Best you go back to that long nap, my friend!
This is so obvious. They arrived on a boat, perhaps in the Yacht Club area, complete with the motorbike, did the robbery, and then sailed off pronto. They were clearly professionals. They are long gone.
Look, folks, they are definitely Jamaicans who have learned some Spanish to evade detection. It’s an open and shut case for me and anyone who disagrees is a very, very naive.
they are not european or north american expats….
They look Brazilian to me….
They are Germans…damn Germans deport them all
G Nowak
I blame the French. They look french to me
If they were French they would have long since surrendered.
They didn’t kill anyone. We should only deport those that do.
Ok folks no more speculation about where they are from. This fully masked couple (including arms and hands) are a man and a woman. Suspect no 1 is a woman. Look at her legs – thats not a man’s legs. Look at her fingers the thumbs especially – they are too long and unnatural for any species. Thats because they are inside of an arm mask. Her shoulders and body are padded to hide the breasts – and look at the arms from the wrist to the elbow – they are out of proportion for the size of the body. I bet she sat behind the man on the getaway bike.
Your Right sherlock , i dated that woman when drunk , she real ugly in the morning .
I certainly hope she was sitting behind him on the ride back!
CNS, can you question the Police on when they will be releasing the Gov’t CCTV footage and why is it taking so long to release it??
Def professional thieves! Hope they can be caught…preferably in another country maybe there own..they will surely give them a dose of their own medicine especially in a spanish country!
To all those who claim that these men are Romanian, allow me to clarify a few things: (1) These men do not look Romanian, now, a week ago, or a year from now. XXXX (2) These men look to be of Spanish origin. That’s probably the reason that they spoke Spanish; simple enough I would think… And no, they’re not Romanians trying to pass themselves off as Spanish – not when they’re showing off their faces to the whole world… (3) Had they been Romanian, they would have been speaking Romanian and nobody would have been the wiser. See if you can figure out this point. (4) Romanians, almost in all cases, do not get involved in armed robberies. They generally involve themselves in crimes dealing with card skimming, cyber-crimes, etc.. (5) If you so happened to hear of “Romanians” in Europe involved in petty crimes, break-ins, and robberies, those are perpetrated generally by Gypsies of Romanian origin. Romanian Gypsies happen to look different from the average Romanian – these two do not look like Gypsies.
Many Cubans are military trained. These guys clearly knew what they were doing and went straight in.
I agree with you, they look like Cubans, but I would say more like Cuban Americans around 35-45 years old. By their looks, body shape, and what they are wearing. Armani Exchange, baseball cap, cut up jeans and the man purse one is carrying.
Would say they could be here on a in transit trip to Cuba or taking a boat to Mexico to try enter the USA. Would say their cloths came from Dolphin Mall, the Armani Exchange outlet store in Miami. So if they not from Miami, I think they have family there, would try getting video on the Miami new stations.
Check all flight records to and from Miami and Cuba this week. Also Camana Bay has free WiFi they probably used that, which I think they can track you with it. They should show the videos on the news here also, so people can see body movements, this would be very helpful to many people to see. What about video from out side the store? Camana Bay is full of cameras, you are watch from you get off the main road all over the property.
Another idea would be to show the videos/photos up at the detention center, they may know who they are, could even be one of the refuges that came here before, would check those records. Also did they get the ones that came a shore and they don’t know who they are?
You should run RCIPS.. You solved it. Not.
I sincerely hope the people stood outside watching and pointing did their community service by alerting the Camana Bay security while also immediately calling the police?
Look at the rug by the door. It’s perfectly straight but in the last photo it’s all bunched up by the door. I wish we could see *all* of the video. Looks like someone either ran out or tried to and bunched up the rug trying to stop.
This is so true that rug is puzzling how do you explain that?
I’m guessing these guys were brought in as professionals and lodged by someone local. They are either gone or laying low for a little while until the heat dies down and then they’ll leave the same way they came by boat. Doubt they are Hondurans or Cubans, more likely Mexicans. Way easier to move that type of merchandise in Mexico I’m guessing.
By the way:
Cuban=Cubian
Honduran= Honduranian. (in case there was any confusion)
The fact they did not care whether they were seen or not tells us something. They getting out of dodge quickly. I believe the chance of them not being on Cayman now is probably like 75% or higher. And not plane obviously but by boat. Cayman still lacks adequate protection of our shorelines.
The fact that they spoke Spanish does not mean they are Honduran but it’s not to say it’s not the easiest place to go to from here. I certainly would not go Cuba. If they are from South America they can easily catch a flight there and go where ever they want or by car if it’s Mexico or other Central American country.
As someone pointed out this looks like something that has been done before. I would check neighboring countries to see if they have any similar style robberies. It would be from a country they not really intended to travel back to.
This one will go unsolved I believe. I could be wrong but this seems to be a hit and run crime and we are not fast enough to really catch these types, sadly.
Those two guys look mighty funny to me. Both very well groomed, wearing baseball caps and t-shirts and i might be seeing things but is there a sort of a whitish outline around the collars of those t-shirts? If those aren’t masks then i must be going mad. I think you are all wrong about them leaving Cayman! They will strike again very soon and this time they will look different but similar to one another!
I agree they came in wAy too casual to be seen. Those are masked they are wearing so we have no Idea who we are looking for. Need witnesses of this dirt bike driving off to trace back to them. Also those shirts can they be bought here try to find a store that sell those and maybe get a name of who purchased them.
Professional! These guys have done this more than once. Defiantly not in Immigration’s system.
Cayman is weak, RCIP is weak and professional criminals KNOW this. CIG is a joke, no protection or education for the people they service. CIG I blame you for this.
I have to laugh spanish speaking and bang right away honduras let me say you sure it was spanish ok tell me spanish from where, what accent, you know like english have British, american, australia, even africa all english different accent so you can narrow that for us give us the spanish accent then we have a idea where to look otherwise stop pointing fingers
Get over yourself bro! Honduras is a cesspit of crime, violence and murder.
Pretty common knowledge that Honduras has the highest murder rate per capita in the entire world so defending that fact is pretty daft.
Has anyone asked the Honduran Police to review these pictures?
These guys are Hispanic in appearance, confident and very bold, which might suggest that they have either done this before or they have military experience.
The easiest way to smuggle arms in to Cayman, must surely be by boat and presumably, once you have used them, the easiest way out is also by boat, with the loot…no Cayman Police records and nobody who knows you, in and out of the country in hours and no fear of any armed police to oppose you!
I suspect that we will see more of this type of violent crime, unless we make a concerted effort to police our waters more effectively.
They look Jamaican to me…
All of you have too much time on your hands. First of all with the comments saying they are a certain nationality makes you all stupid. They are the farthest from being Jamaican, travel there and stop being stupid. It is comments like this that makes this Island stupid and the people that live here stupid. Instead of making stupid comments go out and try to change something!
I hope your hair is not as dry as your sense of humor…
12:01pm, Have you ever been to Spanish Town, in Jamaica? I have, many, many, many times, in fact probably over 50, and I can assure you there are people there that are light skinned and speak Spanish, but they are Jamaican as they come. Furthermore, it seems pretty daft to me that you would think no one from Jamaica could look like this nor speak Spanish, because no one travels anywhere these days or lives in other countries. Way to show the love for your countrymen and your complete lack of knowledge in todays world.
Well SSM345. I am from Jamaica and your comment towards me is again as stupid as all the rest so I am not surprised anymore of any of the stupid comments that you or your countrymen make. Have a wonderful day and I hope that you can sleep at night blaming everyone else of the issues that your country has and please take care and remember that if it was not for the other countries in the world that this place would be a swamp in the middle of the Caribbean because if we left it to you all to make Cayman proud then it would not happen in our lifetime.
To the 12:01 post on Friday. You are right, people have way too much time on their hands on this Island and those are the people that like to criticize all of the ex pats on the Island. These Islands do need to look in the mirror and ask questions of who they are because in my book a lot of them if not all are a bunch of criminals.
Ok, this may be a bit off topic, but when will Government begin fingerprinting of its citizens and residents and check the fingerprints of visitors?
I had to reapply for a passport recently, one would have thought that would be a good opportunity to get fingerprints. Other countries have fingerprinting requirements in order to get passports and/or have the checks at their borders. What are we waiting for?
I realize that plenty people enter illegally, but we got to start somewhere…..
Well apart from the scheme being complete illegal . . .
A stupid head won’t allow legs to rest. Work smarter not harder, in other words. These 2 look cloned as if they were wearing face masks. How do you fingerprint someone who stepped on shore from a boat?
These guys are professionals and are laughing at RCIPS.
Ok Matlock, what database would you run those prints against and using which NSA-grade supercomputers? Even if every law-abiding citizen was fingerprinted, we don’t have access to any unified international database that would get these guys, even if they had priors, entered legally, and left clean prints. Too many people have watched too many crime fantasies on TV.
Dey dun gone…
Romanian or Portuguese by just the Clothes, bag and physical features. Everybody using camera at their borders but Cayman Immigration invested in guard dogs that can only smell Jamaican passports
Thank God we don’t have you on the case if you’re that stupid to think they’re Romanian. If you want to know the main languages that Romanian’s speak – Google can be your friend!
Pow!
Right. Because my reference to how they look and dress is saying what their native language is. Better yet excuse my stupidity in thinking you could speak Spanish if you are from England. As you were soldier crab.
How about your stupidity in think inking you can determine nationality based on someone wearing a internationally branded T shirt or carrying a shoulder bag? And BTW I lived in Romania and these guys don’t look remotely Romanian to me.
You really are a special kind of stupid aren’t you? Again with the ridiculous assumptions that are based on nothing except your weird delusions. I’m not British. But go ahead and continue to insult another nation.
I am from England and I speak Spanish. I have also worked with several other Brits who spoke Spanish. All of us had worked in Spanish speaking countries.
Not sure what your point was but didn’t end to well for you.
I can’t believe that this nightmare could even happen in cayman islands. And off course in camana bay where the most practical and most secure place in cayman is so called. The robbery has taken place and might had fled offshore.
Camana bay needs more security personal or police presence at all times. Mr. Dart please don’t let your stones be rocked by these stupid persons.
What kind of protection can unarmed security guards offer against armed criminals? *crickets*
To me it’s actually pointless to have security guards as statistics show the majority will run or hide when danger presents itself and frankly, I don’t blame them.
This Motorbike menace on our roads has been allowed to manifest itself now to Arm robbery by this Jamaican run UK Managed in effective Police Force. The next logical steps now is for them to start carrying out shootings and murders on motorbikes. Dog is eating our supper every single night Cayman!!! all because we have a feeble and spineless set of political prostitutes who are selling us out to the UK and taking care of themselves and their very own.
Too many foreign parasites in this place. time to cut our population back now by sending home all those putting a strain on our infrastructure. Time to take them off our roads too. Look at what the UK is doing to this place Cayman. They are undermining our very existence !
The UK has nothing to do with this robbery, In fact the UK has only helped the island.
What have the British ever done for us?
The aqueduct….
Well the UK has tried from far back when we had natural disasters like hurricane 1932 but they sent via Jamaica and all good stuff was taken and we got few flour sacks with insects fast forward today….
We kept getting worse from Ja and the ignorant easily intimidate leaders dusting past 30 years gave in to failed or corrupt leaders from Ja so that has Ben greatest source of problems in Cayman.
The English ( can’t include Irish since their dislike for English easily manipulated by Jamaicans too) don’t go stealing jobs in tourism construction civil service, education, police, security, they are mainly in legal services and in this prejudiced world that might have some advantage.
Bottom line total British people here are minority and never our problem for crime and social inequities
Parasites ??? Fu man Shu from China ??
Thank you. It will make my commute all the better to know that by driving into work safely I am assisting in a UK conspiracy to undermine your existence. Bravo!
Looks like they are drifters that might have come in a stolen boat and left the same night. Fingerprint my a..s if you need to, it won’t help. with no border patrol expect more of these kind of organized crime.
Unfortunately, my dear, this is almost a one-off situation. However, more than 80% of the recent burglaries, female assaults, local murders and other community disrupting crimes have been performed by Caymanians – and as a Caymanian I am keen to point this out.
It is unfortunate that as a community and a native people our only defense for our own defaults are to blame it on other races/nationalities and to grab at the opportunity when news like this hits the press. I could type an exhaustive list of recent crime pestilences all performed by our own deprived people.
We of course quickly jump up and say that this deprivation is also caused by “foreigners” when in reality the seeds of this injustice were planted decades ago by our own people – between parents and politicians.
Our Caymanian people were eager to chase development, modern luxuries and all else that comes with it, without being truly prepared to deal with the ‘side effects’ of such movement.
If we Caymanians would truly take our time to make ourselves aware of our more recent history, legislative changes, overall country law, our political system and the island’s general “structure” – we would clearly see that our worst enemy has been ourselves.
It has taken our people over 30 years to call Government out on a deteriorating education system, something that has been voiced for decades and made worst in recent years. It has taken us decades as parents to stand up for our children’s right to a good education, and yet much of the pressure still arises from parents who DO NOT spend, or CANNOT spend the adequate time required to prune a child in to a productive community citizen.
Somewhere between the primary years and graduating High School that disadvantaged child enters our community skill-less and seeking work as if the local employment market is obligated to hire because of their birth certificate (the only “value” most Caymanians seem to instill in to their child is that this is “our island”).
With so many technological advancements that have changed the face of employment and the workforce and a still outdated and insufficient education system – how can anyone blame and employer for their preference of someone who has been exposed and is not familiar with the changes versus someone that has been born and raised in a community that begs for change and is never prepare for what comes with it?
Instead of us Caymanians putting our energy in to the “he say, she say, this nah our fault” foolishness that I have been hearing and seeing for too long, there should be unity in preparing the next generation to be the professional, well-raised, well-spoken, intelligent and enlightened individuals that companies seek to employ.
The newspapers and online news sources, as well as facebook have aired interviews with locals who have been “seeking” work for months or years… and yet when you see our listen to these people they are badly dressed for the occasion, speak with very little decency and carry themselves with little to no poise! An employee is a companies face at work and on the road; if many of our people do not care to even put themselves together when being aired publicly about their employment struggles, how will they enter the office of an employer willing to give them a chance?
Our NWDA has compiled hundreds of resumes, have they provided feedback and guidance on those resumes, do the staff at NWDA even have the skills or HR knowledge to advise on matters like this? Do they discuss work-place etiquette, attire, interview protocol? Provide tips and advice on interviewing… THESE are the skills many Caymanians lack! I have seen people with Master’s degrees with horribly presented resumes! Though you may have the knowledge for the job, some people lack the skill to present that knowledge and skill to an employer through their resume…
Anyway, I could go on about this topic forever… but Caymanians need to turn our focus on advancing and bettering ourselves and uniting as a community for our forgotten youth, these are the roots of all our problems and we’re so ‘fool-fool’ and busy blaming the world while the crap is sitting in all our backyards.
Way too much Sugar in your Cool Aid MM you like many still blaming past mistakes which is simply no longer relevant we need to resolve the situation or problem now! The trouble with ignorance as it goes along it picks up confidence. This place has to come to some balance we simply cannot fit everybody from some where else with out displacing our own people.
Haha, this is another concept that governs our people “stop looking to the past and fix the present and future”. Which again shows our ignorance and lack of enlightenment.
When an attorney learns law, they must learn history. American politicians also must have keen knowledge on American history and the various monarchies go through strenuous studies of their countries’ histories… and yet Cayman is the one place where the natives spit at the concept of reviewing “past mistakes” as a manner of assisting with the design of solutions for present problems and to avoid future problems.
King Louis XVI (Marie Antoinette’s husband) desperately tried to find a way to balance his country because he learnt from the experience of Charles I what could happen to a monarch that does not appease the majority – unfortunately despite his efforts King Louis did not have the “backbone” to do what was required and his head rolled from the block. If he had heeded the example of a king hundreds of years before him, he could have saved both his head and his wife’s head! (but of course, you do not sound like you are much interested in history).
This mentality is widely seen in our people, and this is also, why we fall short of the ability to protect and include ourselves in the development of our country.
You say we must stop looking to the past and deal with now; it is obvious this is also how our people think when they go to the polls. “No, it doesn’t matter that that politician swindled Government money, overspent during their LA tenure or overall made very bad decisions… that was his last term, the past… he’ll do better in the present term, or the future term…. we obviously do not learn from our mistakes! You have shown that to every reader on CNS – and the apparent excuse is that we need to “stop concentrating on mistakes of the past and deal with the present”….
How do you propose we deal with the present problems??? By making the same mistakes of the past because those mistakes have not been admitted and have simply been ignored because we should “stop blaming” them or ultimately analyzing them and their cause?
If a drug addict does not admit they have a problem, and that they crashed their car, lost their wife, or job or whatever “in the past” to their drug problem…. is it not true that they will continue to use the drugs???
So, Mr. Benny… I do not understand how not addressing the “mistakes of the past” can pose any benefit to this country….
Mr Benny sounds like my ex. I kept telling him you can’t keep doing steps 1-10 the same every time and expecting a different outcome. That’s why I dumped him. He kept saying he would change but kept making the same steps.
Hey Zito, this might be a bit difficult for you, but to go forward, you have to correct past mistakes. If you don’t, well, look at us now…..
5.23pm may be right about real face masks. With the border open to anyone this might be just the beginning of the end of the life as you know it. Store employees legally working in this country could be coordinating the actions of career criminals from their respective countries.
Right on Brother!
Your words are the first blow struck against this oppressive regime. Let it be known that there is not one man, or woman, who will not stand up and be counted as probationary martyrs against the colonial apparatus.
Oh, apart from one, Reg has a bad back.
Solidarity Brother.
I have to laugh these guy will never be caught because they are smarter than our law enforcement and every one around the world know it. This is just the beginning. Mark the date in your phone and this time next year count have many of these crimes have been done in G Cayman in the 2016.
whatever model cameras uncle Dart is using, I want too, and so should Gov… great quality 🙂 🙂
Suspect number 2 looks like a cop
I was thinking the same thing; either police or military for both of them.
If you think that Dart will simply take being robbed then you are sorely mistaken. Changes will be made by Dart and his security and he will not wait for the RCIP to sort this out.
You’re right on this point. Derek Haines (should be commissioner of the RCIPS) will solve this.
I put money on it the RCIPS don’t even know how many fishing boats left the island over the last few days.
I also bet there is only 1 Police officer at the airport looking for these guys. Oh forgot this officer will be sitting in his officer there. In fact I flyseveral times a year and I can’t recall the last time I saw a police officer at the airport.
Back to my previous statement. RCIPS put up the videos you have of them on the roads. This will jog people’s memories alot more than just giving discriminations of these guys..
Romanians without a doubt, they also speak Spanish the clothes features give that away
Well considering no one is allowed to carry a weapon for defense and our police officers don’t make it to the scene until its too late, Im surprised this doesnt happen more often. Im sure the word will get out though. Robberies will increase and they wont all end with no one injured.
Gorgeous pictures! These guys are really photogenic!
you got to be sick. They are photogenic thieves
These guys have long gone, no mask and no gloves tells me they are not living here nor in our system i.e. passport in system if they came in on a plane, they likely left on a boat last night or today or are planning to this weekend.
And there was a white dirt bike flying around the Smith Road Villas, back end of Windsor Park area last night that seemed to hide (get off the rd) every time the “black ching ching” flew overhead around 10-11pm.
So, suspicious activity, helicopter in the air, and you don’t bother calling it in. Really!
Dirt bikes fly around our roads at all hours of the night, usually teenagers having a laugh, so no, I don’t call the police, but if my telepathy been on form that night and I knew there was a robbery involving a dirt bike, perhaps I might have called.
http://www.deceptology.com/2011/12/creepy-realistic-human-face-masks.html
I was thinking the exact same as poster 5:23
Check out the difference of the colour around the neck area.
That’s just being to bold to be a real face.
Body language says they’ve done this before, many times.
Ooh lala…..not good…….not good
Baines:- Your CID. and Marine Unit need to be out an about on patrol…..stop sitting in office, chatting and doing nothing!! Hope by now y’all ck’d those hondo boats……they’re loaded with everything fr green iguanas upt to drugs in that seafood…..
You can chat until you are blue in the face the police will do just that – sit in their offices. Remember they are English and no one in the civil service or the Premier can touch them. If it was a Caymanian he would be fired on the spot. That’s just the way it is. Cayman needs a real shake up. May be a real major hurricane or something else to bring about a change. That coupled with a radical leader is the only hope for Caymanian’s. This is sad but true.
You had a hurricane ten years ago!
Derek Haines is head of DART Security, this will get sorted proper and perhaps highlight even more the inefficiencies of Baines crew.
If it was the U.S. these thugs would already be in custody by lunchtime. Faces clearly visible , Latin American features , defiant stance . Come on RCIPS , round these boys up & lock them up
One thing for sure, them boys for once not caymanian and more than likely not their first rodeo. You can tell they look spanish – prolly cubano . that would be a stereo typical guess. Authorities should look for anyone leaving the airport or shores or other avenues of escape from the island with description of the merchandise stolen. Ive always thought that jewelry location was a bit too lax on security with easy route to the road
So you think they panned this robbery from afar and just came in and pulled it off? Are you thick? Caymanian involvement in all robberies over the last 5yrs is obvious, the people who carry them out are from afar and leave the next day, but its locals who scope these places, figure out the escape routes and refuel their boats they leave on.
Bullsh*t SSM345. The 1/2 Million Dollar robbery of CNB that the Jamaican boys did (and took off on wave runners from across the street) and bolted back to Jamaica, ended up getting caught with the Cayman Dollars in Jam – did the news OR your crime stats database tell us that “Locals” (most likely Caymanians you are suggesting) were involved?
Central Americans or Cubans for sure.
I understand they are Hondurans.
Hate to jump to conclusions but Turtle’s logic seems sound…not sure about the country but if not there then it was somewhere close…
Cuban refugees!
you are a dunce. you think they come here on yachts with clean clothes and guns to rob a jewelry store. Not saying they cant be Cubans but if they were then trust me they are not refugees they would be locals and would be very easy to identify by those pictures. Have you noticed the recent robberies and frauds by Romanians and all those other not commonly seen nationalities. people are scouting these islands and seeing all the money and easy pickings, they could’ve just been tourists on a one day trip coming to get some easy money, maybe local connections to send off the loot in one of those canoes I dunno. Just highly doubt the Cuban refugee theory Colombo.
Offensive racist!
Anybody interested in taking bets that either the Government CCTV’s didn’t work or couldn’t properly pick out 2 men on a motorbike headed west because the $4million dollar system sold to government wasn’t good enough or didn’t have the proper pixels?
Wait for the official response from the Ministry of Home Affairs, RCIPS and Security company. Please help the Cayman Islands sweet Jesus.
I think we, the people of the cayman islands should know if the cctv’s ALL WERE WORKING, for if they weren’t then the so called company that provides the service should be replaced IMMEDIATELY!!!!
It’s obviously working ,, hence the footage (pictures)
To 1 13 you moron this is darts cctv not government
The main help needed is to ship Baines off this island. He couldn’t get out of a wet paper bag, not to mention.solve crime.
You mean apart from stopping the heist?
Eric Bush should go and take lessons from Dart …… how cameras are setup with the right amount of zoom. THAT WORK.
If DART doesn’t want to teach Eric, perhaps the UK can since he is moving there now to head up our foreign office?
“WE NEED TO BUILD A WALL”
WE NEED TO BUILD A PORT/ PPM
EVERY TIME the government thinks it need to jump start the economy…instead of issuing a consultant report just go to the voters registration list and have a check issued to everyone on that list. When they sell a piece of government land cut a check…dont trade it for a road cut a check…after all it is the peoples money so cut the check…are they afraid that the people can’t handle the money? Or that only consultants need to get checks…if they were cutting checks all along I bet they wouldn’t need to worry about getting back in..just intrested in holding people down
Govt CCTV footage………i just spit out my coffee, I have yet to see one CCTV image that is of any use from a CIG camera.
Blame the Lodge mafia. The mediocre contracting with the mediocre to deliver the mediocre.
I’m just happy it isn’t my fellow yardie this time. We can’t even pretend to speak Spanish.
Those are from the west bay cuban gang that are known to the police to import the islands main supply of cocaine. You can simply ask any of the spanish ladies that work in this store, every spanish speaking country has their own accents and ways of talking, and each spanish speaking person can hear different accents and know exactly what country they are from. Just ask the ladies.
We should have thermal night vision CCTV on every navigable waterway, marina, and/or barrier reef channel in the Cayman Islands. Every unidentified vessel within 12 miles of Cayman should be tracked, intercepted, and boarded as a matter of normal operating procedure and there should be nothing that slips through the net 24/7/365. The fact that this doesn’t exist here as a part of border security policy should be a matter for the new ACC to look into with haste. The technology is cheap and readily available in 2016. We have a porous border and serious transshipment problem with very bad people coming and going all the time.
Hey Turtle, just because they looked latin doesn’t mean they are Hondurans. We need to be careful when making statements. What we need to do is to assist the police in catching these criminals. These could be visitors to the Island, we had a lot of criminals visiting our shores committing all type of criminal acts like: Romanians, Jamaicans, British ect.
They only spoke Spanish and with the latin look I think it’s safe to assume they were from some latin country!
I’d be intrigued to hear more about two people standing outside in particular the lady watching the show ~ hands crossed and all.
that’s a reflection *-*
They are outside. The store display cabinets are the reflection.
I think that is an inside reflection… even more relevant!
Nope, that’s outside. The store doesn’t have a paved walkway…*last I was in there at least.
*(Note to RCIP: this was Dec.23rd, 2015 at around 3pm-ish, so it wasn’t me).
Nope clearly not a reflection. It’s clearly somebody outside. Besides, she doesn’t look like any of the staff who work there. I hope the police got their statements.
Ok, these guys aren’t Caymanians, they appear to be Spanish. Just a thought and I hope the RCIPS has already thought of this, during the night and this morning did law enforcement check every fishing boat leaving the island? These guys don’t care that we have seen their faces, in my humble opinion they appear to be pros and may have done this before. My money is on they are part of a Honduranian gang and came over on a fishing boat and if not left by boat will be doing so today, tomorrow .
Also we know camana bay has loads of cameras, are these the best pics of these guys and can the RCIPS please provide the general public with the government ctv camera coverage of these guys heading towards WB. I’m sure someone driving saw them but just having a description probable won’t goh the memory. Video footage will.
The expensive govt cctvs are impotent. They are toys that children don’t even want to play with. Ask the millionnaire security firm, how well the night blind cctvs work. What a joke.
CCTV is blind.
How is that a reflection?? look at the reflection of the gunman who is definitely inside vs the three individuals outside, I think not.
Yes, look at the reflection – are you saying there is another jewelry case outside of the store as well?
The display case is the reflection dumbo.
A for the effort… F for substance. keep the good heart, we need it.
absolutely right! Hopefully the word hasn’t got out that we are sitting ducks in Cayman aka Fantasy Island. If Baines doesn’t rise to the challenge on this it will set far to much in motion for the future.
Bet they will solve this one even if they have to move heaven and earth! After all, it was on Dart’s territory so all hands on deck for this. Let this have been down town George Town! Drip, drip. drip!
