Ann-Marie Got Carjacked!
posted (May 20, 2013)
Ann Marie Williams is one of the best known names and faces in Belizeans – she's been on the frontline of media, activism and politics for over two decades. But tonight, she's in the headlines after she was car jacked this weekend.

On Saturday night at around 11:00, Ann Marie was returning from the Miss Y Pageant and pulled into her driveway on Durgeon Drive. But when she parked her Mazda Tribute, she saw a car abruptly pull up at the speedbump near her house. She then saw two men striding into her unfenced yard. She says she shouted at them, but they just kept on coming at her. One of them held a club over her while the other demanded the car key. She handed it over and one of them drove off, while the other ran back into the vehicle they had come in and sped off. They also took her cell phone. Police recovered the vehicle in Hattieivlle around noon today. It was undamaged, but had to be towed into the city because the ignition key could not be found.

Today Ann Marie declined comment explaining that she was traumatized. Police have no suspects at this time.
