A man was beaten up at a bus stop on Saturday morning, and it was caught on security camera.  

Emory Gonzalez was waiting at the bus stop in front of old Belize at mile 5 on the Western Highway when three men pulled up in a car, and beat him mercilessly.  It only lasted for a few seconds before they jumped back in their car and sped off.  

Police told us they know who did it:

Sup. Alejandro Cowo- OC CIB
"Police are investigating this matter. I believe that Mr. Gonzalez was readmitted at the hospital this morning. We have interviewed him for a very short time. But what we have gathered so far is that he was in the company of another female, of a female person. They went to old Belize to deal with some situation there. And whilst waiting over there a vehicle came, three persons came out of the vehicle and he was brutally attacked by these three male persons."

Jules Vasquez
"Do you have any idea who the men in the car are?"

Sup. Alejandro Cowo
"Yes, we have identified them and police are looking for them at this moment."

Reporter
"Sir, and have you guys established why he might have been attacked, why these persons attacked him?"

Sup. Alejandro Cowo
"Yes, we more or less have a motive but that is part of the investigation that we do not want to disclose at this moment."

Gonzalez had been treated and released, but had to be re-admitted to the KHMH this morning due to pain.
