At the top of the news, we told you about the arraignment of the 8 lawmen for the murder of a man in Orange Walk. That was the high-profile case which hit the news late last week, but before that, it was the Wednesday night double murder of 26 year old Lloyd Valentine, and 12 year-old David Morrison.
As viewers are aware, this 12 year-old young man was mercilessly gunned down and killed in a gang war between adults that he has nothing to do with.
Police say that they are having difficulties cracking the case, and they are hoping that the eyewitnesses who saw what happened will come forward. Here's how the head of Eastern Division CIB made a plea to those witnesses to help them get justice for the families of the slain victims:
ASP Alejandro Cowo - OC. CIB Belize City
"We have detained several persons. I know that the main suspect was detained, however, due to lack of evidence we had to release them. We are appealing to the persons, to the public who were there and saw what happened, if they can come and assist us. I know that there are persons that witnessed what happened and we are requesting their assistance for us to try to solve this double murder at Pregnant Alley."
