Country Name: Panama
Location Detail: Linton Bay
EVENT: Burglary
HAND: 1
Stolen Items: Everything below deck including 2 TVs, tools dive gear, life jackets, etc.
SECURED: Locked
DETAILS:
An unoccupied boat at anchor was burglarized. The owners had been absent for about 2 weeks and on their return discovered a pry bar had been used to defeat the companionway lock and gain entry. The thieves took many things from below (TV’s tools, dive gear, etc.) and would have needed considerable time to accomplish their thievery.
This burglary was the 4th incident in this bay during the last month.
This incident was reported to the police (Aeronaval), and the marina. Nighttime patrols have been put in place recently.
