Firepower Down By the River
posted (February 11, 2019)
And also in Benque on Sunday morning - police found a stash of weapons on the banks of the Mopan River. Here's more about the find:..

ACP Joseph Myvett
"Benque Viejo police again, yesterday morning sometime around 8:45 a.m., responding to information, conducted a search just outside a property along the riverside where in a black plastic bag they discovered a Winchester brand pump twelve shotgun along with four cartridges. And they also discovered a Bersa brand nine millimeter pistol with three magazines and four rounds of ammunition as well."

Couple the discovery of the two sets of weapons we just told you about with the fact that a Guatemalan recently shot at the Belize Customs building, and it's suggestive of a rise of outlaw activity in that Western Town.
