Police: Minimal Calls, Burglary During Hurricane
The Bermuda Police Service has reported that there were “minimal calls” as Hurricane Joaquin affected the island, though a burglary took place at the Blue Hole Gas Station.
Police media manager Dwayne Caines said, “The Bermuda Police Service can report that there were minimal calls to the service over the hurricane period, with the only incident of note being a burglary that took place at the Blue Hole Gas Station, where someone gained entry into the premises and took an undisclosed amount of alcohol.
“An investigation into the incident is underway.
“Police are also reminding the motoring public to drive with caution as there are still debris and water on the road. Persons should also note that many stoplights around the island are not working, and people should exercise caution.
“The Commissioner’s Visions award that was slated for tonight has been postponed until further notice.”

Why are we selling alcohol at gas stations ?
First start looking for the gas station culprit(s)around Wilkinson ave,harlem,bay area….you may not have to look too far. No one from outside of the area would risk their lives in a hurricane to steal alcohol. If so, they must have had a car to truck it away which I doubt!!!Its nearly Impossible to ride with all that liquor on a bike in that weather. My guess is they were on foot and live in the area.
Congratulations Bermuda Police ……Fire Service ….and…Regiment …..B.el.co….and T.e.l.c.o ….and all services involved in helping keep uor Island home safe and sound while most of us quivered under our blankets praying for the storm to pass us with minimal Damage…..Thank G-D the bigger for sparing our azzzz ..one more time.!
