I received an urgent message that LOOTERS are invading Beacon Hill from the beach steps next to Bayview Villas near Beachside Villas. If anyone can contact the police or Military about this ; hopefully they can catch these thieves and stop the looting. I heard that the military are guarding the entrance of Beacon hill at the roundabout in Maho .

Unfortunately, they can't see their facebook page. They were asking people to put message for love ones just in case someone was checking facebook, but the station itself has no internet access.

Comments such as this are not appreciated at this time in particular. People need to think about what is being suggested or said.

I am hearing that they are all over robbing. They need to call in more reinforcement, or people will start getting hurt... How do people protect themselves and there property? Some one that has family on Island they should be shot on the spot for this... Yea sure...

I posted on Facebook pages for laser 101 and island 92, tweeted to Dutch marines and mentioned in the Simply SXM Facebook group. Hopefully help will arrive. This can happen to any of the ocean/water side properties. Just sick

At our home in US they would be introduced to Mr Remmington, and his buddies Mr Smith and Mr Wesson. There I'd settle for a baseball bat and machete. But only goes so far against a gun.

Nice work.......TTOL -- as always a vital com link in the whole operation
.....reminds me of Clint Eastwood movie on Grenada invasion where they used a calling card for reinforcements whatever works
May need to setup a 24 hour watch on TTOL to relay messages

Great that they responded but telling you to call 911 isn't possible for many there. We are in USA and most in SXM have no power and most batteries are dead in cel phones
