Calle Las Liebres Robbery - On May 4, at 2 AM, I awoke to a flashlight on my face. I was being robbed. I called the police, and they promptly came. After two hours, the police had in custody the two teenage robbers and one adult worker that had broken into my home. They had also confiscated the television the robbers had taken and returned it to me. I just want to report the kindness and efficiency afforded me by Comandante Polo and his team. It is important to report to the police any incidents like this that occur. We cannot complain about the inefficiency of the police department if we don't do our part. Report crimes that happen to you, and allow the police to do their job.
