Dangriga Sub-Treasury Hit by Another Burglary as Security Concerns Mount

Authorities in Dangriga are investigating yet another burglary at the Sub-Treasury Office on St. Vincent Street, after thieves broke into the government building overnight and escaped with an estimated $500 worth of coins.  The incident was discovered early this morning when staff arrived and noticed that one of the front glass windows had been smashed. A crime scene technician was dispatched to process the area, including the broken window where the perpetrators are believed to have gained entry.  At this time, officials from the Ministry of Finance and the Treasury Department have not yet issued a formal statement, and it remains unclear whether additional items were stolen beyond the container of coins kept inside the office. Investigators continue to review the scene and gather information.  This recent break-in is not an isolated occurrence. The Dangriga Sub-Treasury has been targeted multiple times over the years, including August 2024, when burglars made off with an entire safe, prompting questions about internal security vulnerabilities., and back in 2017, when the office was robbed in a daytime incident involving thousands of dollars.  Police are now working to determine how many individuals were involved, whether surveillance footage captured the incident.  More information is expected once authorities release an official update on the full extent of the losses and the progress of the investigation.
