Three masked and armed intruders traumatize attorney and her son in early-morning robbery  

An attorney and her nine-year-old son were traumatized by an
armed robbery that took place in the early hours of Friday, March
22, during which three masked men entered their Piccadilly home.

Reports say the woman was asleep in her room when she was
suddenly awakened by the three unknown men at about 1:30 a.m.
They allegedly entered her son’s bedroom, as well, and held him in
the hallway while they ransacked his mother’s room. 

The trio robbed the lawyer of two Samsung cellular phones and an
HP laptop; a quantity of gold and silver jewelry; a black leather bag
containing her Antigua and Barbuda passport, an American
passport, her driver’s license, her Social Security card and ECAB
card, as well as EC$500.

Additionally, a piggy bank containing EC$70 and a voter ID card
were taken from her bedroom.

One of the bandits is said to be of a slim build and about 6 feet 2
inches in height and was wearing blue jeans and a green long-
sleeved shirt. He reportedly carried an orange-coloured gun.

His two accomplices are said to be about 5 feet 5 inches in height
and were wearing dark-coloured clothing. All three had shirts
covering their faces.

Apparently, the robbers entered the house through a sliding door
that was closed but not locked. They made good their escape
through the wooden front door. 

A report of the incident was made to the Dockyard Police Station by
the Piccadilly woman, who went to the station with her son.
A search was carried out in the surrounding areas for the alleged
offenders, but without success. 

Investigations into this armed robbery continue. 
Meanwhile, a report of larceny – in which an unknown person stole
a generator – is also being investigated.

A report of the incident was made to the Criminal Investigations
Department (CID) by the female victim, whose blue-and-black
Yamaha 2600cc watts generator, valued at EC$2,500, was stolen
between 3 a.m. and 6 a.m. on  March 16.

Allegedly, the generator was being stored in the northern area of the
Villa woman’s porch.

Reportedly, her daughter had woken up at 3 a.m. on the day in
question and turned off the generator.  However, when she awoke
again at 6 a.m., the generator was missing.
