Sickening! This is happening far to much lately.
Welcome to Bermuda!
To think that two children would have the very nerve to do such a thing in broad daylight just beggars belief. This is far different than stealing a bike out of some unlit parking area in Hamilton at night.
This indicates not only a total disregard for law and order but NO fear of anyone else whatsoever. None .
Of course this is not the first time this has happened either , and is a true reflection on the very serious types of issues we have within a certain segment of the community.
If they’re this fearless the next step will be daytime home invasions with the occupants inside.
And please don’t tell me that it’s the hard economic times .. As we just saw in another case last week , they’re not buying groceries or paying the rent with the proceeds of their actions .
when are we going to start putting such scum to death?
Perhaps someone can tell me which part of Bermuda is actually safe? I mean if I’m thinking of moving – what part of the island would be safe from these thieves.
But then again, when the country is run by a bunch of gangsters, what can you expect?
Nowhere is safe anymore. And no time of the day is safe. These thugs will rob and shoot in broad daylight and mere blocks from the Cop Shop.
Tuckers Town, where I live!
What a joke? If these are the same two cowards running amok all over Bermuda they seem to be having a ball at law abiding citizens expense! I totally agree it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to know what these punks are funding taking others property! I’d like to see the tables turned on them some one taking their stuff! I’m hoping my son does not give me news one day his bike is taken by cowards, a bike he worked hard for and paid for himself!
