18 year old Christopher Jorgenson - who was shot in Belize City on Sunday night - died from his injuries yesterday.
Jorgenson was shot to the midsection by a gunman who pulled up at the basketball house near his home on Curl Thompson Street and opened fire on him.
So today, the 20 year old who stands accused shooting him was charged with murder.
20 year-old Keyron Johnson, a resident of Jane Usher Boulevard, was brought back before Chief Magistrate Anne Marie Smith. The previous charges no longer apply, and his charge was upgraded to murder.
Again, Johnson was not eligible for bail, so he remains on remand until June 6.
According to police, yesterday at around 4:30, Jorgenson died after he experienced complications while undergoing treatment at the KHMH for the gunshot to the abdomen.
