Two criminals who last Monday, 1 May 2017 carjacked a woman in the Naco neighborhood in Santo Domingo and stole her SUV, returned the vehicle yesterday after parking it in front of her apartment. They also left a note, handwritten and in very poor Spanish, asking for her pardon and blessings.
The woman’s lawyer, Julio Peña Guzmán, shared the good news with El Nacional and Diario Libre newspapers. He said the note read: “Excuse us lady, (I was) obsessed with taking a drive. I am sorry, excuse me, I’m sorry, pardon me, sincerely, blessings, Christ loves you 100 X 100 for the pardon. Excuse the incident caused little lady, excuse me.”
Peña Guzmán told reporters that when the robbery occurred he spread the video taken by the building’s security cameras via Whatsapp. He said: “That same night, Colonel Sarita, the commander of Plan Piloto police station came to my mother’s house and the truth be said the police did work so fast we were surprised.”
The lawyer said: “Last night my brother came home and told me he thought the vehicle had been found and the thieves had returned it right outside the building after the watchman observed the vehicle was parked outside. The thieves did not take anything that was inside the vehicle. Curiously, the repentant thieves took the vehicle’s license plate.
