MOUNT HEALTHY, Tortola, VI- It was shortly before 10:00 PM last night, Thursday, September 25, 2025, at a birthday party in Mount Healthy on the main island of Tortola, when persons were robbed at gunpoint.

It is reported that 3 masked men with guns came and demanded gold.

The party was winding down when the masked men fired a shot as they were entering the building, according to persons who were at the event.

No one was hurt; however, persons were relieved of their gold chains and other items by the robbers.

The gunmen escaped in a red Kia Soul with private plates.

The police were called and the matter is said to be under investigation. They took statements from those who were reportedly robbed and they also looked for spent shells from the gun which was fired.

The brazen robbery comes as the Territory is in a four-day anti-crime summit, which is seeking to find ways to reduce crime.

      Shots in the Night, Smoke in the Summit

      While leaders gathered in polished halls,
      trading words, rehearsed, rehearsed—
      three masked men stormed a birthday call,
      with iron in hand, and laughter cursed.

      A gunshot cracked through Mount Healthy air,
      not at the Summit, not in debate—
      but where chains were snatched and hearts turned bare,
      as criminals mocked the Territory’s fate.

      What weight has talk, when bullets sing?
      When a red Kia Soul is the getaway king?
      While the DPP stumbles with empty files,
      justice limps, and failure smiles.

      Enough of the chatter, the staged lament,
      while mothers and fathers live in torment.
      Harsh penalties must speak where leaders fail,
      swift and severe—no revolving jail.

      Seal the borders porous as sand,
      stop weapons bleeding into this land.
      Replace the DPP who cannot win,
      for justice delayed is a haven for sin.

      The robbers care not for summits grand,
      their verdict was fired by their own hand.
      Until law bites sharper than crime’s own blade,
      this fragile peace will rot, decayed.

    The anti-crime summit is a joke. The school children should be there listening; it's like something the Government put together just so they can say they're doing something. Every person who has failed at their job and has come forward is on the panel making excuses for their incompetence and lack of know-how.

    Not encouraging these robberies ;but, minimum wages need adjusting and the youths need jobs. I hope the perpetrators are caught and brought to justice .

    Kia Soul with Tint is the Scooter upgrade.

    Perfect for criminal activities.
