posted (June 19, 2008)

A .45 pistol is one of the deadliest weapons made and that’s why it’s classed as a prohibited firearm in Belize. But on Saturday night police busted 28 year old Ian Arthurs with just that, a .45 handgun. A mobile patrol was on West Street 11:30 pm on Saturday when they saw Arthurs. He ran and police say they pursued him and then saw him throw a firearm on the ground. Police searched the area and found the .45 handgun which was loaded with 5 live rounds. The gun had no serial number. Arthurs has been arrested and charged for keeping a prohibited firearm and ammunition.
