thank GOD no one was hurt,,,,but it's a good reason to leave the vast majority of your cash in your stateroom safe, or purchase travelers checks and split credit cards between traveling companions,,,,my goodness,,,,

Good to know. Sometimes we take it for granted that things will be safe while we're "Lost in Paradise." It's a shame that this happened and fortunately no one was hurt, also glad they caught the perpetrator. It's certainly nor good for the tourist industry, period!

Jeff,

I was there that day, I left around 2 pm. I tipped the young guy that showed us to our chairs and umbrella and he said to me "I will watch you"

I never thought I was in danger. This is so scary!

By the newspaper report it sounds like the authorities are taking this seriously. I remember a billboard that I saw in Antigua a couple of years ago, it said "Tourism is everyone's business".

Wonder if there has been any "follow-up" on this? :confused:
