A 21-year-old man has been charged with the robbery of an Airbnb apartment, where dancehall artiste Kiprich was staying in Portmore, St Catherine. 

Kemar Jones of 11 Miles, Bull Bay, St Andrew, was charged on Monday with housebreaking and larceny.

Reports are that about 10:45 am on March 11, Jones broke into the apartment and stole several items, including a Rolex watch valued at US$15,000, a gold chain valued at US$12,000, and sunglasses valued at US$450 along with US$15,000 and $300 Canadian in cash.

Detectives later apprehended Jones after a number of the stolen items were recovered.

Jones is to appear in court later this week.
