Yesterday evening, Wednesday, 17 February, officers received a report of an armed robbery of Island Jewellers Store in Camana Bay and immediately responded to the scene.

Just before 8:45PM, a man had entered the Island Jewellers Store on the pretext of shopping for jewellery. While being assisted by store personnel, the man withdrew a handgun from his bag and ordered that merchandise be placed in the bag. During this exchange a second man, also with a handgun, had entered the store, and stood by the store entrance. The two men did not wear any mask or gloves during the robbery, and spoke Spanish.

The men left the store with a quantity of diamonds, and fled on a white dirt bike in the general direction of West Bay. No one was injured in the course of the robbery and the guns were not discharged.

Store cameras captured pictures of the men, which are attached. Descriptions of the men are as follows:
