So, while police en the north led those searches, cops from Dangriga continue to try and locate their main suspect in the murder of 41-year-old Geraldine Flowers.
You'll remember that on Sunday morning, she reportedly allowed her ex-common-law husband into her home in the New Site area. She and this individual had a protracted history of domestic violence. But on that day, she decided to speak to him. Reports are that their discussion escalated to a quarrel, and then later to her murder. She was found dead in her bedroom, after suffering from gunshot injuries and stab wounds.
Her cousin, 36-year-old Samuel Reid, who was asleep in an adjacent bedroom in the house, reportedly tried to come to her aid. And because he tried to intervene, he was also shot and stabbed.
Police told the press today, that they are still looking for the suspect:
ACP Joseph Myvette - Head, NCIB
"Yes, the suspect still remains at large."
Reporter
"Do you believe that he is within the Stann Creek [District] or Dangriga proper, considering that he has relatives?"
ACP Joseph Myvette
"I wouldn't want to say that. We were following several leads at other Districts. So, I would not necessarily be going into the fact that he may concentrate in that area at this time."
