MS-13 Tagger Caught
posted (August 13, 2020)

On Monday we showed you the Belmopan church that had been tagged with MS 13 gang signs. Pastor Luis Wade Jr. speaking to us shortly after said it was an assertion of territory and pointed to other tags throughout the capital. But the cops didn't seem to see it that way, chalking it up to mischief.

Tonight, however, we can tell you that police have arrested and charged 20-year-old Hector, Tiul Guiterrez, for damage to property but also for the crime of using an identifying sign to promote a gang-related activity.

Tiul was also charged with the immigration of offense of failing to produce a visitor's permit. No word on whether there will be ammunition charges for the bullets that were found on the scene.
