Belize Medical College Burglarized
Fri, March 19, 2010

And while those minors were robbed, a medical school was burglarized between last night and this morning. The Belize Medical College at the Boom cut-off was all set and stocked for a series of seminars for Belizean social workers and law enforcement officers – but when they got to the compound this morning, they found that all the food for the event, the projector, the PA system and the safe had been stolen. Keishalynn Estell told us more.

Keishalynn Estell, Belize Medical College
“Our librarian, she arrived at school this morning and when she went to put on the AC for the conference area she realized that the windows were broken and when she looked inside she saw that all the contents of the cafeteria were gone and when she looked into the seminar rea she realized that our equipment were also gone and then when she came back over to the main administration building she realized then that the door was pried open and also the secretary’s office was pried open.”

Jim McFadzean,
”What was missing from the secretary’s office?”

Keishalynn Estell,
“Our company safe, that was gone. Personally I would say it is somebody that is aware of what we have so I would think that it was an inside job.”

Jim McFadzean,
“Have there been any robberies here before?”

Keishalynn Estell,
“Yes in our library they had stolen all our computers from the library, just the computers. So it leads us to believe that it is somebody that really knows what’s going on here.”

The safe contained $500 along with some very important legal documents. The total value of the losses is estimated at five thousand dollars comparable to last year’s burglary when computers valuing six thousand dollars were stolen. The school if offering a reward of one thousand dollars for anyone with information which may led to an arrest and recovery of the items.
