Chi Chi Rodriquez: Normally when someone is robbed, the last thing they say is “the robbers were gentle”. But, that’s exactly what big time golfer Chi Chi Rodriquez said after being robbed at gunpoint on Wednesday morning. Chi Chi and his wife were at home sleeping at 1:30 this morning when the robbers broke into their home. Chi Chi and his wife lived in El Legado Resort in the southern city of Guayama.
Chi Chi Rodriquez, 74 and his wife were sleeping when three men entered their home. The security guard to the resort was tied up by a fourth man while the other three ransacked the Rodriquez home. One man was said to have a pistol and the others were carrying zip ties and duct tape. The robbers took everything they could carry out including the wedding ring off his wife’s finger.
According to Chi Chi Rodriquez it took the men about 45 minutes to get as much jewelry, cash, and other personal items that they could carry out by hand. Chi Chi calls it the “scariest situation I’ve ever been in” but indeed indicates that the robbers were gentle when tying he and his wife up. Neither Chi Chi or his wife were injured and he does plan to be in South Carolina this weekend for a publicity appearance. No one has been arrested yet in the robbery.
