In our first segment we told you about two weekend murders - one in the city, the other in the north. The next one happened in the south, Cowpen Village near Independence.
On Sunday evening, Santiago Pop's neighbor called police because he had not seen the 58 year old for two days.
When San Juan police got to the small home - they found the door unlocked, went in, and found Pop face down in a pool of blood. He appeared to have been chopped to death. Second in charge of crime investigation, Hilberto Romero told us more:...
Sr. Supt. Hilberto Romero
"A male person was identified as Santiago Pop of Cowpen Village. Information revealed that he had not been seen for 2 days. Thereafter neighbors became concerned. They made checks and his decomposed body was found inside the house."
Reporter
"Was there a robbery element in this?"
Sr. Supt. Hilberto Romero
"No, we don't suspect that there was any robbery. His body was found and we are asking the public's assistance if they have any information about what transpired or what actually happened at that house because he was found there by himself and he was living there by himself."
As you heard, police have no suspects.
