Tried To Rob Female Hot Dog Vendor, Got Chopped To Death
posted (March 26, 2012)
Belize City resident Solomon Gabourel was killed early on Saturday morning. Gabourel was stabbed to death by the aunt of a female hot dog vendor - whom he had just robbed.

It happened at around 4:30 am. It is alleged that Gabourel held up a 19 year old female hot dog vendor by holding her the neck and placing a sharp object against her abdomen.

He then took her entire apron with eight-hundred dollars in cash and her cell phone. He was going back into the car he had arrived in when the 19 year old's aunt intervened. He allegedly punched her, and she threw a bottle at him - when he tried to run off, she picked up a machete with a 13 inch blade and stabbed him in the left side of his abdomen.

Gabourel managed to make it into the car he had arrived in - and his associates rushed him to the hospital. Gabourel succumbed to his injuries while undergoing surgery and was pronounced dead at 5:55 a.m.

Police have released the female who fatally stabbed Gabourel - because she acted in defence of her family's property. Notably the teenaged hot dog vendor did not recover the stolen property - as Gabourel clutched unto it as he staggered into the getaway vehicle.
