Three studios at Maho Bay Campground and a nearby rental villa were burglarized on Thursday, June 12.
Guests staying in the eco-resort’s three Harmony Studios returned from the beach around 4:30 p.m. and found several game boys and DVD players missing, according to Maho’s general manager Adrian Davis.
“It seemed to me that they entered from the decks because there were no signs of forced entry,” said Davis.
No one was injured and V.I. Police Department officials responded promptly and professionally, Davis added.
Crime is not common at the quiet eco-resort on the island’s north shore. There have been no reports of burglaries at Maho Bay Camps for almost three years.
Two young St. John men went on a crime spree on Saturday night, June 7, stealing a car from The Marketplace, wrecking the car and destroying about $10,000 worth of property at the Sirenusa luxury condominium development.
Management at Sirenusa reported vandalism at the construction site overlooking Cruz Bay around 7:55 a.m. Sunday morning, June 8, according to the V.I. Police Department’s Leader Jurgen Command incident blotter.
Two 18-year-old men stole a Jeep Cherokee from the parking lot of The Marketplace late Saturday night and drove it up to Sirenusa sometime between midnight and 7 a.m., according to management at the condo site.
“It looks like they got the car stuck,” he said. “They destroyed the car and smashed through all the windows. Then they broke two windows in one of the homes at Sirenusa.”
The suspects were in a downtown bar the next night bragging about the incident, according to the Sirenusa manager.
While officials intend to press charges, the suspects had not been arrested as of press time.
That's terrible news from STJ!! Which villa was entered out by Maho's Harmony Studios?
