Police Catch Up With Big Tug
posted (May 18, 2010)
Police have found Raymond Meyers Jr. known as Big Tug who is wanted for the murder of 27 year old Francis Figueroa. On Friday night at around 7:30 Meyers was allegedly hanging out near Royal Imports on Vernon Street in Belize City when he had a misunderstanding with Royal employee Francis Figueroa. They started to fight and it ended when Meyers and a group of men stabbed Figueroa multiple times - most seriously to his chest. Meyers died 20 minutes later at the KHMH. The argument was reportedly over Figueroa's devout faith - which Meyers often use to nag him about. Meyers is expected to be charged for murder tomorrow.

He has been charged for murder before and got off. In 2003, he was charged for killing Poly Audinett.
