Dear Sir,

Steal a car in Bermuda? Ridiculous? Not so. Last Saturday, December 15, my TV, VCR, stereo were taken from my home after a forced break in, all placed in a locked 93 Mitsubishi (27737), locked garage, and then driven off.

In this week that followed Police notification and search for fingerprints (on Sunday), nothing has happened. The Argus Insurance agency is in an inactive state, The Royal Gazette newspaper is unaware, the Police have no report, fail to answer repeated calls, Officer Webster is off duty.

No doubt everyone affected is enjoying many Christmas parties.

Nevertheless, there is no sign of my stolen car.

You especially, and the public should know the Island is out of control, needs help, as Bermuda has become a jungle ravaged by thieves on drugs.
