posted (July 4, 2017)
Last week Thursday, we told you about the chopping murder of 21 year-old Amilcar Omar Moralez Gonzalez, the Salvadoran from San Joaquin village. Police were looking for 33 year-old Arturo Tamai Tzul, and they were concerned that he had fled back to Mexico.

Well, he didn't; he was caught in Belize and yesterday, he was charged with one count of murder. He will now be arraigned and remanded to the Belize Central Prison.

The killing happened at around 3:20 a.m., on Thursday, June 29. Amilcar Gonzalez and a friend were walking a girl home when Tzul appeared and started a fight.

He'd already had a prior confrontation with the girl. Tzul chopped Gonzalez and his friend to their necks. Tzul died while his friend survived.
