The Bermuda Police Service can confirm that an incident took place at an Alexandra Road, Devonshire residence around 5:20 this morning where 3 men gained entry into the home and threatened the female occupant with what may have been a firearm. Inquiries into this incident are ongoing; however, it appears to be a case of mistaken identity, as the female occupant of the residence does not appear to be the intended target of the suspects.
To clarify some of the reports in the local media recently concerning Police officers ticketing drivers using cellular phones for driving without due care and attention:
Inquiries into the attempted murder of a 19 year old Devonshire man and the murder of 18 year old Jason Lightbourne in the same night are continuing. We would like to assure the public that resources available within the Bermuda Police Service and outside of the Bermuda Police Service are being used in the course of both investigations.
