Another Cabbie Killed, This One In Griga
posted (October 27, 2017)
Another taxi man has been murdered - this time it's in Dangriga. This morning around 9:00 farm workers at an Orange Orchard between miles one and two on the Southern Highway found 32 year old Jose Alfredo Majil dead beside his taxi - a Ford Escort with Dangriga plates. His throat had been slit - and police believe it happened within the 12 hours of finding him dead.

The taxi was parked about 100 yards from the highway. Majil was a Dangriga resident - but police have no clues yet as to what led to his death. They note that in May, 2015 he was charged for drug trafficking 25 pounds of weed in Arenal. That is one angle investigators are looking at.
