And from that knife fight in PG, we turn now to a brazen home invasion which happened in the early morning hours of Wednesday in Ladyville. 

An elderly taxi-man was asleep at his home on Ocean Jack Avenue, when 3 armed burglars broke in and cleaned him out of 6 different TV’s which were installed in different rooms. Here’s what police had to say on this incident:

ASP Alejandro Cowo - OC, CIB Belize City
"On Wednesday 2018, at about 2:30 in the morning, Ladyville Police responded to an aggravated burglary on Ocean Jack Avenue in Ladyville, where they spoke to Cornelius Burke, a taxi driver, who reported that while he was inside of his room sleeping, he felt someone covering his mouth. When he opened his eye, he saw a male person standing beside him, asking where the chest was. He responded to them that he does not have a chest. Thereafter, 2 other male persons came into the room. They tied him up, and they ransacked the entire house. Stolen from there were 6 flat screen televisions, $600 in cash, and his van was also stolen.
