CHARLOTTE AMALIE — Police need your help to find a female suspect on St. Thomas wanted for possession of stolen property and grand larceny.

The Virgin Islands Police Department posted a plea to Twitter at 12:24 p.m. today asking the public to identify an unnamed woman wanted for “stolen possession,” an apparent typographical error.

VIPD Communications Director Glen Dratte did not immediately return a request for clarification from the Virgin Islands Free Press this afternoon.

John McCarthy

John F. McCarthy is a veteran journalist in the Caribbean, writing from the "Decision Space" where survival meets the surreal. His reporting steel was tempered by a lineage of legendary editors and broadcasters, including Ed Wynn Brant (The Bomb), Owen Eschenroder (Ann Arbor News), Lynelle Emanuel (BVI Beacon), and Charles Thanas (WSVI-TV). Alongside longtime colleague Kenneth C. "Casey" Clark, McCarthy has navigated the front lines of the territory’s history—from the 1997 volcanic "snow" to every major hurricane since Hugo. Known for leaning out of doorless helicopters to capture the "money shot," McCarthy now edits the V.I. Free Press, providing the essential link between the island's colonial past and its SpaceX future.
