NewzKINGSTON, Jamaica — A 36-year-old car dealer has been charged with simple larceny after allegedly returning to the home of a client and reclaiming a vehicle he had agreed to sell citing the clients non payment. Charged is Anthony Ximines of a Mandeville, Manchester address. According to the Savanna-la-Mar police, between July and August 2022, a man purchased a 2017 red Jaguar from Ximines, a car-mart dealer, for $5.2 million.

It is alleged that sometime in May 2026, Ximines went to the complainant’s home while in possession of a spare key and drove away the vehicle without his consent.

The matter was subsequently reported to the police. On Tuesday, August 11, a police team conducted a targeted operation at Ximines’ residence, where he was arrested. He was taken to the Savanna-la-Mar Police Station and subsequently charged.
