Police Investigate Incidents at Seven Mile Public Beach

Just after 1:40 PM on Wednesday, 3 December, police were dispatched by the 9-1-1 Communications Centre to a report of a robbery at the Seven Mile Public Beach. The incident involved a cruise ship visitor to the island.

It was reported that two masked men approached a man and forcefully removed a gold coloured chain from around his neck. A woman came to the aid of the victim and was assaulted by the perpetrators. She was pushed to the ground, and this caused her minor injuries to her leg. She did not request medical assistance for her injury.

Police carried out a search of the surrounding area for the men; however, they were not located.

Following this report, just after 5:25 PM, officers also responded to a resort located on the Seven Mile Beach area, where a second robbery was reported to have taken place. The victim in this matter was also a cruise ship visitor to the island, and she reported that she was approached by a man in an aggressive manner who subsequently stole her wallet and phone. She did not report any injuries to the police.

Both robbery incidents are being investigated by the police, and anyone with information is being encouraged to call the George Town Police Station at 949-4222.
