Police took a shotgun and 20 live rounds of ammunition off the streets of Belize City.
The discovery was made on last Saturday at around 12:30 p.m. The Eastern Division Regional Commander and an officer from the Gang Suppression Unit received information, and they visited a lot in the Belama Phase 3 area of the City. Inside an abandoned Jeep Cherokee SUV, the cops found a Mossberg 12-gauge shotgun, and 4 packs of 12-gauge shotgun cartridges.
While the gun looks like it was stashed by criminals, police suspect that it had just been left there for some time by someone who had smuggled it into the country. It has been sent to the lab for testing.
