The Sint Maarten Police Force (KPSM) has launched an active investigation into a recent surge in armed robberies that have unsettled the community.
Police Actively Investigating Surge in Armed Robberies Across Sint Maarten
Over the past few weeks, a noticeable increase in robberies targeting local supermarkets, small businesses, and even tourists has sparked concern across the island.
Detectives from the Special Robbery Unit are leading the effort to identify, locate, and apprehend those responsible.
In many of these incidents, suspects escaped the crime scenes using scooters. These quick getaways have made it difficult to track the perpetrators immediately. Several victims not only lost valuables but also sustained physical injuries during these violent encounters. Some required medical treatment, which underscores the level of aggression involved in these crimes.
Despite the recent spike, KPSM reports that the overall number of armed robberies so far in 2025 remains lower than in the same period of 2024. Nonetheless, the current trend demands urgent attention. The police remain vigilant and are working tirelessly to prevent further incidents. Their message to the public is clear: vigilance and cooperation are key.
To strengthen their investigations, police are urging residents and visitors alike to come forward with any relevant information. Even seemingly minor details—such as suspicious activity, scooter sightings, or overheard conversations—could be instrumental in solving these cases.
