MARIGOT—The gendarmes managed to arrest a 20-year-old man that is wanted for stealing a vehicle. The man was found hiding out in French Quarter. According to a press release from the gendarmerie, the culprit forced the female driver out of her vehicle somewhere in Orient Bay. The vehicle was also recovered. The suspect will be sent to Guadeloupe where he would appear in court.
French law enforcement is also searching for another suspect who entered a vehicle in St. James and held the driver up at gunpoint ordering him to drive across the border. When the two arrived in Cole Bay, the suspect forced his victim to withdraw monies from the ATM machine. According to the gendarmes, the Dutch police were in the area and they forced both the suspect and victim back over to the French side. Ever since the incident, the gendarmes have been looking for the gunman.
