Antigua and Barbuda Police are investigating a string of armed robberies that took place over a three-day span in different parts of the island, raising fresh concerns about violent crime.

The first incident occurred Sept. 16 around 10:20 p.m. in All Saints Village, where a man was attacked and robbed of his motor jeep and wallet. He sustained a cutlass wound to his left thumb and later sought medical attention.

Two suspects have been arrested in connection with the case.

Two days later, on Sept. 18, a 67-year-old Hatton resident was targeted in Donovans.

Police said armed assailants tied him up, ransacked his home, and demanded money before fleeing in his Toyota Noah van with a weed whacker.

The victim managed to free himself and alert neighbors, who called authorities.

The most recent incident happened Sept. 19 around 4:50 p.m. in Creekside, where armed intruders entered a home through an unlocked door.

Police said two occupants, aged 12 and 21, were robbed at gunpoint of a gaming console, a cellphone, and a bag containing schoolbooks.

Investigators carried out searches for the stolen property but were unable to recover the items.

  1. Attorney General Steadroy Benjamin, temporary Police Commissioner Everton Jeffers and Prime Minister Gaston Browne are in total denial about this criminal “cancer” now threatening to envelope our country.

    Why the silence from these 3 major players, when it’s their jobs to protect the women, children and the hard pressed taxpaying citizens from harm.

    I DON’T GET IT …

  2. People have reached the stage where they are litterally afraid to go to sleep in the night in CRIME CITY, ANTIGUA and the shitbag in charge of public safety can’t articulate a single policy to comfort the minds of the people. LEADERSHIP TRULY MATTERS

  3. Look Visionary, U nah lie tarl.I am scared like hell especially if my husband working late nights I just call him straight trying to find out if he almost finished work. Not easy at all!!!

  4. The government should get solar powered streetlight with camera combination out of china to replace all existing streetlights system and help the police and government solve crime.
