Men who robbed Davis still on the loose



The men who robbed Acting Prime Minister Philip Brave Davis at his home on Monday morning were still at large, police said last night.


“Persons are providing information daily,” said Assistant Commissioner of Police Anthony Ferguson.


“I think the case is very alive. We are actively pursing all the leads that we have and that we are getting. We are confident that we’ll solve this matter. It’s only a matter of time.”


Ferguson said police had not yet identified the robbers.


On Monday, three armed men drove onto Davis’ West Ridge compound, accosted his unarmed chauffer and robbed Davis and his family at gunpoint in their home, police said.


The masked men entered Davis’ home after 7 a.m. after they assaulted the chauffeur outside.


Police later released photos of two of the bandits to the public.


Davis told reporters that he was a bit shaken by the ordeal and that the incident showed that no one is immune from crime.


He said he did not think he was targeted by the thugs and said that the armed men appeared more frantic when they realized whose home they were robbing.


Davis did not have a security detail at the time.


Commissioner of Police Ellison Greenslade admitted that there were obvious security concerns at the home and pledged to improve security for Davis.


Ferguson yesterday asked anyone with information regarding the incident to contact police.
