Another 15 year old boy has been charged with Mario Trotman's murder. As we told you on Tuesday, police found 18 year old Mario Trotman's body in the Jane Usher Area. Police believe that a friend lured him to that area and shot him to the head. Well police told us that they caught the 15 year old shooter and that he has been charged, but police are still searching for more answers to close this case.
ACP Chester Williams, OC - Southside ED
"The only person they have charged is the 15 year old who actually lead us to the body. We have not charged anybody else in relation to that matter, but the investigation is still ongoing. Should we later gathered additional evidence that could put other person on the scene or have other persons as suspect having committed the act itself, then we will proceed with those information. But until now, we only have against that one person who took us to the location where the body was found."
We spoke to Trotman's father off camera today and he told us he had been warning his son about those boys he was hanging out with but he didn't listen.
Today the accused minor who stands just over 3 feet tall, was taken over to the Belize City Family Court where he was read a single count of murder. In court, he was presented as just 14 years old - while police say he is 15.
