ACP Chester Williams - Commander, Southside
"This morning sometime around 4am, the police, based again on information provided to us by members of the public, responded to a burglar in progress at 88 Kitchen. That is on Central American Boulevard. Upon arrival at the location, police found one male person and a further search of the building led the police to 2 individuals inside of the building, one of whom is a minor age 15 years. All 3 persons were taken into custody and a search of one of the individual at the police station yield just over ninety dollars Belize currency, which we believe is proceeds from the burglary. I must also state that you all would know that we have been strict, in terms of minors who are found on the streets between the hours of 9pm and 6am. So in the case of the minor, we have also arrested and charge the parent of the minor for allowing a child to be out on the street whilst being unsupervised between that time period."
As you heard, the minor's parent was fined as a result of this incident. This is in line with Williams' 9pm Kids curfew. Williams told us that this is the 2nd time that this parent has been charged for this same 15 year old boy. This parent is the 6th parent to be fined since this curfew has been reinforced.
