posted (September 23, 2014)
As we told you earlier, there were two murders over the Independence Day weekend. The first one happened in Belize City Saturday evening at around 7 p.m. when 38 year-old mechanic Glenmore Stephen was shot in the back.

Today, police told us that he was walking in the Complex area in Lake Independence when a man ambushed him and fired at least 10 shots at him.

"Police visited the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital where they saw the body of a 38 year old Glenmore Stephen. Initial investigations revealed that Stephen was walking along Rally Street in the vicinity of Electric Avenue and McKay Boulevard by the Complex when he was approached by a lone culprit who fired several shots at him causing his fatal injuries. Police have since detained a 27 year old male person who they believe can assist in this investigation."

Today, we approached the family for an interview, but they declined. They did tell us, however, that Stephen was the father of 3 children.
