Robbery At A Tourist Hotel - They Got Cash, and a Gun

By Lineth Torrero Ramos for El Siglo - A robbery was reported in room number 4534 at a tourist hotel in Rio Hato. Two Panamanian couples were staying in the room but went out and took the key with them. When they returned they discovered property missing. One of the couples went to the DIJ in Penonomé to file a complaint where they indicated the loss of cash, articles, and (curiously) a firearm. There was no indications of a forced entry and officials are investigating to see if guests are allowed to stay at the hotel with their weapons. The event is in the hands of authorities who are trying to recover the money, articles, and the gun.
Editor's Comment: Money, jewelry, and weapons - that's what the bad guys want. If you have those things in your house consider them to be bad-guy magnets and protect them (and yourself) accordingly. Now why these idiots decided to pack the pistol to the beach is anyone's guess - and I bet the maid saw it and told her boyfriend the pool boy. In any case, dumb. If you have to deal with cash for whatever reason break up your habits and patterns. Say you have to make a rent payment on the 15th for instance. Pay early sometimes, pay late others. Don't be reliable as clockwork (which makes you predictable.) See the Forums to discuss this personal security stuff.


Roban en hotel turístico


Lineth Torrero RamosCorresponsal de El Siglo


En la habitación 4534 de un hotel turístico del corregimiento de Río Hato se registró un supuesto robo momentos en que dos parejas, panameñas, residentes en Las Cumbres que se hospedaban en la habitación se encontraban fuera de la misma, pero mantenían la llave de la habitación.


Cuando regresaron descubrieron que les faltaban sus pertenencias. Una de las parejas acudieron a la DIJ de la ciudad de Penonomé a interponer la denuncia donde señalan la pérdida de dinero, prendas y lo más curioso un arma de fuego.


Se conoció que en este robo no hubo violencia en la puerta y se investiga si es permitido entrar con arma al hotel, dado que no es conveniente que personas entren con arma de fuego a un sitio turístico.


El hecho está en manos de las autoridades. Éstas tratan de dar con el paradero del arma de fuego, de las prendas y el dinero.

Hmm sounds like a robbery made by 'invisible' people. No doubt that the persons who did this are professionals. The police should pay more attention to solve this case because who knows when another attack like this can happen.
I hope the robbers will be found and will be punished by the letter of the law.
