Police are on the hunt for a suspect following a break-in at a clothing store on Market Street earlier this week.
Investigators say the incident occurred sometime between Wednesday and Thursday, when an intruder forced their way into the business and stole an undisclosed amount of cash, along with iPhones, Samsung tablets, and several pairs of shoes.
Some of the stolen property has since been recovered and is now in police custody as the investigation continues.
Authorities are urging the public not to purchase items believed to be stolen, warning that doing so is a criminal offence.
Anyone with information about the break-in or the suspect is asked to contact the Criminal Investigations Department at 462-3913/14 or call Crime Stoppers at 800-TIPS (8477).
Community safety relies on quick response from the police. It’s good to see that steps are being taken to apprehend those responsible.
I hope they find them cause it really does sound like is some kind of criminal ring
Unless an example is made these crimes wilñ never stop
Living in the end of times. Things will only get worse
Iphones can be tracked. They better we aware
Hope some store keepers don’t buy these cloths for resale
Some people wicked enough to buy the items
I hope they find the sucker
Its impossible to resell them stuff without someone talking. Antiguans love to chat
Well if we see phones cloths and shoes being sold for less than it’s worth then we know
