The Criminal Investigations Department (CID) is now investigating the burglary, which occurred on January 9 at about 4 a.m.
It is alleged that a man entered the home of the, 77-year-old Whenner Road resident and stole her handbag containing EC$600, US$200, and several identification cards.
The senior citizen says she had gone to bed at about 10 p.m. the night before (January 8), and had secured her house, ensuring that all the doors and windows were locked.
However, in the early-morning hours of the following day, she was awakened by a presence in her bedroom, and she reportedly opened her eyes to see a male figure, dressed in dark clothing.
It is alleged that the intruder used a ladder to climb to the bathroom window, from which he had to remove four panes of louvre glass to gain entry into the home. Later, he reportedly made his escape through the kitchen door.
A search was carried out in the surrounding area for the stolen items and the thief, though without success.

Yup you can tell his body type just by the fact he can get through a bathroom window. These young ppl. The so call kids of the future robbing ppl of the past.
Sadly, it looks like Antiguans are going to have to fend for themselves when it comes to dealing with the criminal fraternity.
Unfortunately, unless the Attorney general, the Police Commissioner or the Prime Minister’s family, friends or associates are ROBBED, ATTACKED or WORSE, these three MOUSEKETEERS 🐀🐀🐀 are not going to tackle the ever rising crime rates here in Antigua.
We are being watched by the criminal fraternity, but who are watching them?
What is Benjamin’s, Rodney’s and Browne’s MOUSEKETEER moto?
Is it “All for NONE and NOTHING for all?”
The reality of this is should the victim have shot the burglar in the back, the police would find the victim guilty. If I was a burglar, I would not only be encouraged to steal but I would feel empowered knowing the law was on my side, protected me and I would keep on stealing.
If the same burglar shot me in the back, it would be business as usual with police looking into the crime and no one in custody. You call this justice or even fair? The law needs to be changed to protect the innocent and the law abiding citizens NOT the law breaking thieves.
Until then, they will continue to do as they like at the expense of the law abiding innocent victims. Maybe it will take a high ranking official to be robbed, raped and shot in the back by a burglar before the stupid laws are changed in favour of the victims.
