MY SON IS MISSING
posted (August 25, 2016)
21 year old Deron Lizama has been missing at sea since last week Friday. The family has been searching for answers but they are losing hope. Lizama's father told us today that he left that Friday morning around 11. Lizama was headed for Long Caye to deliver food supplies but he never made it and since then his father has made a missing person's report and has been called several times about a body that was found near Spanish Caye. But the family hasn't gotten anything concrete so far. Today we asked police if they know of the report and if it might be related to Doyle Garbutt's murder last night.
