Tuesday, June 24, 2014. AARON HUMES Reporting: Police say they have the man who is alleged to have gone on a spree of deception in Belize City, targeting older persons by posing as a bill collector for Belize Electricity Limited, among other things.

On Monday, forty-nine year old Curl Gordon, a.k.a. “Doggy”, a laborer of a Pelican Street address, was read 2 counts of theft when he appeared before Magistrate Dale Cayetano.

Gordon pleaded not guilty to the charges.
