One resident of Goodwood Tobago is calling for answers from the police.
The man told TV6 that after he gave the police all the necessary information needed to solve a robbery at his Goodwood home, many of the items tracked by him and his family have not been retrieved by police. The resident who wished not to be identified spoke with TV6'S Elizabeth Williams.
00:00One man told the TV6 News even after he gave police officers in Tobago the
00:05sufficient information in cracking the case following a robbery at his home
00:10today he is still waiting the arrest of the suspects in the matter.
00:15We called the police around 5 in the morning because that's when we realized that things were missing.
00:23So the police came about two hours after we called them, two to three hours after we called them
00:28and we explained to them, we gave them the report on the missing items, it was mainly my items
00:34and I showed them that we could track these items and they said okay and
00:41they said they would, if you have any suspects, we relay all suspects to them
00:47and they said they would take the, if they have any IME for the devices we
00:53gave them the IME and they said CYBER would track these items as well.
00:58The concerned resident told us that when he initially contacted Roxborough Police he
01:04was told that the station was short-staffed.
01:07Same day we tracked the devices, around 2 in the evening, same Tuesday, we told the police, they said, Roxborough Police, they said they were short-staffed.
01:18They reached many hours later, about three hours later, I explained to them, they said they would bring the fingerprint crew.
01:28The fingerprint crew came on Friday morning, the crew told us to get in touch with one of the inspectors in Roxborough
01:38to help solve the case faster since we could also track these items.
01:42We said okay, on Friday evening more items returned but only one of the items in the same spot actually, a spot that we checked a lot with the police.
01:54He said he later received precise information via his tracking devices.
01:59Later Sunday evening I got even more frustrated because I am picking up more of a more accurate
02:07where it is, it was actually in a car.
02:11They said okay thanks for the information, I said since Saturday I told you that some of the items
02:18were in a car and some were in a home. He said okay thanks for the information, I said all right.
02:24Monday at that point, Monday I was more frustrated, I called him again, they didn't do anything.
02:31Monday night I was lying down on my bed, my sister let me know that her friend is getting
02:41someone trying to sell her my phone. A three-week call was conducted with police.
02:46We explained to the police, they said okay we have patrols in that village, we said okay.
02:54It took 20 minutes for them to reach the spot in the village.
03:01The annoying thing about that is that when they reached, they talked to a citizen
03:06and the citizen said yes that guy tried to sell me the phone but when he sold, I told him no
03:14and he jumped into a taxi. I would expect the police to take down the name of that person
03:19and chase down said maxi since the person said that they not too long jumping to the maxi,
03:24that's what Roxbury told us, nothing didn't happen. He said things grew from bad to worse
03:30when officers got fed up of his family contacting the police station for help.
03:36My sister said that the officer, someone in the back,
03:42the inspector said why are these people keep calling, calling the station,
03:46tell him don't call again. He told the TV6 News he feels frustrated by the process.
03:52I feel very frustrated, I feel even more frustrated because Roxbury told the police
03:57that we were with that a child had the phone. He said while his phone was retrieved by police,
04:04no suspects are in custody. I'm asking the authorities to look heavily into the matter
04:10because it's very it seems that things are being covered up and they refuse to give me back my
04:17phone after I told them that I have health information on it because I get seizures and
04:22whatnot and it also if I get a seizure it sends that information to my family right and also the
04:30doctor also need health information off the device right it works well with my other devices and I
