Lots of crimes are committed by persons who come to SXM especially during the Xmas holidays to commit robberies.
These are pick pockets and also specialists in home robberies.
I welcome the extra police presence, I welcome the road controls, I welcome the extra foot patrols, I welcome patrols checking for seat belts -gives them a chance to check for other items as well, I welcome that all buses are being checked, I welcome that all scam time share scratch card vendors are being checked-although i noticed yesterday they have moved over to the boat bar next to Sunset beach Bar.
Many homes are being robbed at the moment, I do believe that if you asked most residents if they feel more comfortable with the extra police presence, they would tell you yes.
This island has 15.000 illegals, a lot of undocumented persons walking around, not all seeking employment.
This is quite a lot of undocumented persons to monitor, but the fact remains during high tourist season we also have the visitors that come here to commit robberies.
