Messenger Injured to Head In Robbery
posted (July 13, 2018)
A man was shot to the head in Belize City this evening - and, tonight he is clinging to life at the KHMH. It happened at a few minutes before 5:00 - right around the corner from the KHMH on St. Joseph Street. Reports are that there was some kind of dispute between two men, and one of them suddenly pulled out a gun, and shot the victim to the side of the head. When we left the scene an hour ago - police had not confirmed his name.

We note that this is a high traffic area between the Social Security Building and BAHA and that the shooting happened at the height of the Friday evening rush hour.

We note also that 90 minutes before this incident, an armed man wrestled away a nurse's purse on Mercy Lane - which is a short distance from where the shooting happened.
