So far, 2008 has been one of the deadliest years on record in Belize
City. 20 murders compared to 11 in the same period last year. And while the
murder total is nearly double, the number of arrests has only increased slightly.
But police hope to increase that arrest rate when they track down a number of
wanted men. On Monday, the Crimes Investigation Branch issued wanted posters
for four men wanted in connection with murders and attempted murders that occurred
between January twenty seventh and April fifth.
The suspects are 21 year old Herbert Faber wanted for the murder of
Jeremy Gibson; nineteen year old Charles Castillo Aka Wang wanted for the murder
of Tyrone Castellanos; twenty seven year old Randolph Samuels also known as
Dylan Sheran aka Yankee Fresh who is wanted for the attempted murder of Delroy
Matura; and Brandon Taylor who is wanted for the attempted murder of Carl Bradley.
According to the head of CIB in Belize City Supt. Aaron Guzman all
wanted suspects should be considered armed and dangerous.
Supt. Aaron Guzman,
“It is our information he is still in the country of Belize and only
yesterday we had a tip that we worked on and we appreciate the tips coming in
and it seems to have been a good tip but we will keep working on it. We did
visit with the mother and inquired of her, my officers inquired of her and told
her what her son was wanted for and that it would be easier if he is just brought
into the station or to a police station so that he goes through the process
of being charged and appearing before the court.
Actually we went to Gales Point looking for him and we did not find him
there so we keep on looking for him. Yes we believe he is still in Belize.
Brandon Taylor is wanted for the attempt murder of Carl Bradley which occurred
over the weekend, Friday night and a team of my officers chased him on Sunday
but they didn’t catch him so we’re still actively looking for him
to be charged for the attempted murder against Mr. Bradley. Apparently Mr. Taylor
was just shooting randomly on the Rocky Road area. He damaged some vehicles
that were out there. They have damages on them from bullets.”
If you know the whereabouts of any of the wanted men, call the nearest
police station.
