For several weeks, the number of stolen vehicles has increased sharply on the French side. "We are indeed seeing a peak," admits lieutenant-colonel Sébastien Manzoni in charge of the command of the company of Saint-Martin without wanting to give precise figures.
It is "a worrying phenomenon" but which is easily explained in this post Irma context.
The number of damaged cars requires a significant volume of spare parts and this high demand is very conducive to the development of a parallel market; a market which was, before Irma, existing and favored by the absence of borders on the island.
"We have created a special group dedicated to this phenomenon, to which all complaints are communicated," said the lieutenant-colonel. An investigation is underway to identify and update traffic in cars and spare parts.
