Tarique Cadle Charged for Armed Robbery
posted (December 24, 2008)

Nineteen year old Tarique Cadle will be spending his Christmas behind bars after being identified as one of the robbers involved in a holdup that happened one week ago. Around nine thirty that night, forty two year old Belize City businessman Steve Patterson was at the Queen Square Market hanging out with friends but as the group gambled and drank two men approached Steve Patterson.

One of them pointed a pistol at Patterson and the other suspect demanded that he hand over his belongings. One of the robbers then grabbed a gold chain from around Patterson’s neck and he then handed over his gold bracelet and medal. Both men then ran off with the jewelry valued at five thousand two hundred dollars.

And while the pair of robbers managed to escape, the police investigation did lead them to one of their suspects, Tarique Kuylon Cadle, a resident of Supal Street in Belize City. Steve Patterson later positively identified Tarique Cadle as one of the young men who robbed him. This morning, Cadle appeared in court number five and was arraigned on the charge of robbery. Due to the nature of the offense he was denied bail and remanded to prison.

Tonight police are now looking for the accomplice who has been identified only as a twenty two year old man. Police say they know the name of the suspect.
