This was the same thing that happend after luis. And there were robberys or attempted for a very long time... Thats when alot of folks started putting gates on there property. lets remember there are alot of people out of work... We who have a home in the keys, where robbed twice, of course we do not leave much of value as we are only on Island for winter months... But living with the fear is just horrible... This may be an ongoing thing... And People will have to secure there property for sure...

The unfortunate thing with this is that its not necessarily happening because of Irma. The home invasions before the storm where getting to be alarming. Looks like the island is going right back to where it left off.

Sadly, not the first time for an Oyster Pond robbery or a vacationer villa robbery and probably won’t be the last. As long as the people are okay ‘things’ are replaceable. So sad to have a vacation end this way and the island’s good will further demeaned.


Respectfully,
