Stann Creek Cops Looking For Killers, One Could Be Escapee
posted (March 10, 2016)
Independence police are looking for 2 men in connection with Duane Logan's murder. They are escaped prisoner Shane Bennett, and Ronald Jaime. Police believe that these two men broke into Logan's home and one of them shot and killed Logan in front of his 4 year old daughter. Police told us they went out to look for Bennett and Jaime yesterday and found camps set up in a Pine Ridge area where they believe these men were hiding. But police haven't found them yet and will keep looking. The incident happened on Saturday March 5th. Logan had just returned home at around 8:00 Saturday night when 2 masked men held him up. One man had a gun and the other had a machete. They forced him inside and demanded money and weed. When he refused, one of the men took his common law wife in the bedroom and forced her to give up some money and jewelry. But that is when she heard a gunshot. As she came out of the room, she saw her husband on the floor dead - he had been shot to the chest. Their 4 year old daughter and 17 year old niece saw everything. We tried to speak with the wife yesterday after the post mortem but she declined.
