Today, police told us that a large quantum of cash was involved in the robbery:..

ASP Alejandro Cowo - OC, CIB, Belize City 
"When he was about to enter his premises he was approached by three male persons armed with a firearm. One of them knocked on the window of his vehicle and as he opened it the person pointed the firearm at him and demanded an envelope that he had. He handed over the envelope containing $15,000. Thereafter the three male persons got on a vehicle. The identity of the three suspects is unknown at this moment. What we understand is that he had just left from the bank on the Phillip Goldson Highway, Scotia Bank, and was proceeding to his residence which was just a matter of 10 to 15 minutes. Apparently the persons were already waiting for him at his residence."

The family says that from now on, they will be doing online banking, no more visits to the bank.
