June 10, 2015

At around 1.20am on Wednesday morning a burglar entered the Port Royal Esso gas station in Southampton and stole cash from a charity container.

“Detectives are currently investigating a reported burglary that occurred at the Port Royal Esso gas station on Middle Road in Southampton early Wednesday morning,” a police spokesperson said.

“It appears that around 1:20am Wednesday, June 10th a lone intruder – described as a dark complexioned male wearing white and black shoes, black pants, a blue shirt and a black helmet – gained entry into the premises and stole an undisclosed amount of cash in a charity container before fleeing on a dark coloured motorcycle, apparently heading east on Middle Road.”

“Inquiries regarding this reported burglary continue and witnesses or anyone with relevant information should contact the Criminal Investigations Department on the main police telephone number 295-0011.”

    Where is Mr. Dunkley and the Mp for this area.
    They should be there.

    • Impressive says:

      I am not a fan of the OBA or Mr. Dunkley, but I would bite at this.. Why should be be there??? If he was to go around to every post burglary establishment the man wouldn’t have time to do anything at all.. If a person really feels more comfortable in life to have a politician console them after an unfortunate event, they are really in some serious trouble in this life.. cho

        You guys don’t get it do yah.
        Good night.

        • Impressive says:

          I guess, who exactly are “you guys”?? Are you referring to persons who think subjectively?? Confused ;-)

    How low can people be? Charity Money tho? smh

    • Impressive says:

      When a person has a feen, money is money and their only goal is getting their fix.. Maybe I am assuming too much here, but I know that I am street smart enough to know that no upstanding individual is going to go through the trouble of risking their credibility to break into an establishment to steal a jar of donations.. anyway,, things are getting crazy..

      • Toodle-oo says:

        You must have not caught all the posts from people on the bank heist thread that said times were tight and people were desperate and in order to pay rent and buy groceries were having to do desperate things ! lol

        (but you are absolutely right though)

        • Regina says:

          I am sorry but there is no way in hell I am going to believe that this man stole charity money to buy Kraft Mac and Cheese for his kids. Nor am I going to believe someone robbed a bank in broad daylight for toilet paper money. Come on people, these are drug crimes. Stupid people, high on drugs do stupid things like this.

          • Impressive says:

            Exactly,, Someone goes into a gas station that has plenty food, drinks, paper products, car supplies, etc, but they steal a jar or donations.. I am not a genius, but I have a bit of sense in the penthouse,, lol

    “Gained entry”?

    • dz says:

      One of those formalisms Bermudians use when trying to sound official. Like using “whom” regardless of what is proper, since whom sounds more edumacated. Or something. In this case, apparently “entered” or “forced entry” do not sound official enough.

  5. Ringmaster says:

    Lucky Bermuda has all those CCTV cameras everywhere along the main roads. Shouldn’t take long to catch the thief.

    Or what good are all those cameras?

    Smh

    • Andy M says:

      …there is…too much stealing.

    • Terry says:

      Ask Walton and crew.

      • impressive. says:

        your little sarcastic comments, “hidden insults”, implied scenarios are becoming more and more immature.

  8. missy says:

    Suffering…its so sad.

  9. lifetime says:

    Where’s Mister National Security this week? Oh he must be still stewing over the bra gate episode!

    Get it together Dunkley! The country is reeling! Americas Cup isn’t going to save you!

  10. Need to realize says:

    Some people are so quick to involve OBA into this, remember the government isn’t gonna be able to fix everything without the community involved

    Also people steal all the time how can you possibly blame the government for someone else’s actions, please someone explain that to me!

    • impressive. says:

      Some people are under the illusion that we can legislate ourselves through all the problems that exist in this world… sad.. People should know by know where my political allegiance doesn’t lie, bt to blame the OBA is simply stupid, lol.. With that rationale, I guess the police force wasn’t needed prior to 2012,, just saying..

    They have cameras there so hopefully the Turkey who came through the front door will be caught.
