Last night, we told you about the two men who police arrested and charged for robbing La Popular Bakery on Logwood Street in Belize City. Well, we've since been provided with surveillance video of the crime in progress.
It happened on Monday, and as you can see here, 2 men were there to conduct legitimate business. Two robbers then strolled in pretending to be customers, and they immediately turned around and headed directly for the cash register. The man to the far right, wearing a cap, pulled out a firearm, and pointed it at the cashier, while another man wearing a red cap darted behind the counter. The other 2 customers were forced to helplessly step aside, allowing the criminals to take the proceeds of the bakery's sales for the day, and they also robbed a lady of her purse. You can see the man with the red cap dart out of the bakery with a purse in his hand.
These men, identified as 27 year-old Gildon Rivers and 19 year-old Delwin Lopez, have since been arraigned on a charge of robbery, and they are at the Belize Central Prison tonight. They will be taken back to court on April 30th.
