Recovered Stolen Jewelry
The Bermuda Police Service has recently recovered a large quantity of jewelry which is suspected of being stolen. The jewelry includes a Rolex watch. We are appealing to any members of the public who may have had jewelry stolen recently to contact the Southside Police Station on 293-2222 so that the items can be identified and returned to their rightful owners.
‘Car Jack’ E-mail
The Bermuda Police Service is aware of an e-mail currently circulating around the island warning against ‘carjacking’ and a particular method criminals are said to use. Though in some cases the e-mail refers to this activity occurring in Bermuda, the e-mail itself almost certainly originated overseas and no incidents of this nature have been reported to the Bermuda Police Service.
