WILLEMSTAD Police have made two arrests in connection with separate criminal investigations currently underway on the island, authorities confirmed on Tuesday. 

In the ongoing investigation into a burglary that occurred in December 2024 at United Distributors on Asteroidenweg, the Atrako Team apprehended a 30-year-old man born in Jamaica late Monday night. The arrest took place on Cubaweg, where officers also seized his vehicle for further investigation. 

In a separate case, detectives arrested a 22-year-old man born in Haiti, identified as A.D., in connection with a theft at a hotel in Otrobanda in March 2025. The arrest occurred around 2:30 p.m. Monday in the vicinity of the same hotel. 

Both suspects have been brought before an assistant public prosecutor, who ordered their pretrial detention as investigations continue.
