Likely Drug Plane Discovered In Lagoon In Northern Belize
posted (March 12, 2013)
Who knows how many drug flights transit through and above Belize? We only seem to know about the ones that crash land - as one of them did sometime last week. This Cessna 200 was found near the Pueblo Nuevo Ferry in the Corozal District on Friday. It had crash landed sometime fairly recently. Authorities have confirmed that it was an illegal flight, but no illicit cargo or human remains were found on board the five - seater.

Responding to reports, police found it at about 2:00 on Friday afternoon, partially submerged in the lagoon near the Pueblo Viejo Ferry. This is in the northern Corozal district.

Authorities have not yet set up a plan to remove the plane.
