Inquiries Continue Regarding Reported Suspicious Incidents

Around 5:15pm on Tuesday, November 8th police officers responded to a reported aggravated burglary at an Orchard Grove, Pembroke residence.

It appears that two unknown men on a motorcycle arrived at the residence, one brandishing what appeared to be a firearm, demanding money.

However, they left empty handed a short time later on the motorcycle they arrived on.

One suspect was described as 5 feet 6 inches tall, with the other said to be 5 feet 10 inches tall.

Apparently both were wearing dark coloured helmets and clothing, riding a maroon coloured motorcycle.

There were no reported injuries and the alleged victims have so far declined to assist police.

Later that evening, around 11:30pm, police received a report of two men on a reddish coloured motorcycle approaching another male motorcyclist on Palmetto Road in Devonshire near the junction with Tribe Road No. 2.

One of the men on the reddish coloured motorcycle apparently brandished what appeared to be a firearm.

However, the male motorcyclist that was confronted managed to elude the two suspects and was not injured.

Inquiries continue regarding both incidents and the possibility that they may be linked has not been ruled out.

Any witnesses or persons with any information should contact the Criminal Investigation Department on 247-1744 or the confidential and anonymous Crime Stoppers hotline 800-8477.


All incidents are under investigation. Police are appealing to members of the public who have witnessed these incidents or may have information pertaining to them to contact their respective Police Station, Police Headquarters at 295-0011 or the confidential Crimestoppers Hotline on 1 (800) 623-8477.
