Sept 24th Bank Robbery at Fidelity bank - Cayman Island

Witnesses tell Cayman 27 crews that the robbery was really quick and only lasted about one minute. It is believed that the men responsible left the scene in a black coloured Jeep Compass (picture of Jeep Compass not the one possibly used in robbery).

We are also told there were three masked suspects. One of the suspects stood by the security guard, another suspect told the customers and staff in the bank to get down on the ground and watched them, and one suspect demanded money from bank staff. It is unknown how much money was taken at this time.

The suspects are described as being:
  • Brown complexion, 6 feet in height, weighing about 180 pounds. He was wearing a white overall over his face and dark glasses.
  • Dark brown complexion, wearing denim pants and a white and grey coloured shirt.
  • Dark brown complexion, wearing a white shirt and dark pants.

Police say all three had their faces covered and were carrying what appeared to be firearms.

The robbery occurred at about 10 a.m. CID, uniformed officers, USG, and Air Operations unit were all been deployed once the report was made. An ambulance was also dispatched to the scene.

No shots were fired and no one was injured during the robbery.

Anyone with any information about this crime should call George Town police station on 949-4222 or the confidential Crime Stoppers number 800-8477(TIPS).
