Guy entering properties!
Posted by Stephanie W on May 26, 2024, 6:28 pm
A week ago I woke up from my siesta and there was a guy in my living room with a machete! He was not aggressive but I found his presence and machete menacing! Not an hour after he left he was lighting a fire in the road that is above mine! The police were called and they did drive bus for the past week…and they also knew where he lived and of previous problems! Evidently they talked to him!
Well yesterday he entered the property of a neighbor who whooshed him out and then he lit another fire in the arroyo! Again the police and Delegado were called! The police arrived in about 5 minutes but the guy got away down the river to the beach!
After several calls to the Delegado and a stop by the police station today…he has not been found and the police are still patrolling the area!
Really? I have received three other complaints about this same guy trespassing or frightening occupants in their homes!
Met with the Delegado today and seems like until he does something “harmful” or “bad” the police cannot do anything! So wait til he hurts someone or starts a bad fire???
Sherri…his description is that of so many others here in body! But he does walk about town a lot and I have always seen him carry a machete as he cut cocos and has a rope slung over his shoulders! Most all the locals I know have a story about his entering houses or properties! He has never been aggressive to my knowledge but he is scary when found inside your house uninvited! Also lighting fires is not a good thing!
