Murder in Stann Creek

By BBN Staff: Police are trying to determine the identity of a man that was killed in Hope Creek Village, Stann Creek District yesterday.

Officers say they responded to a call around 12:18 a.m. and found the lifeless body of a John Doe of Hispanic descent, with chop wounds to the body.

Investigations revealed that John Doe was involved in an altercation at a bar earlier and that a man involved in that altercation left on bicycle, returning a moments later on a motorcycle with another man.

One of the two men on the motorcycle approached John Doe with a machete and inflicted the wounds that ultimately killed him. His body was transported to the Western Regional Hospital, where he was pronounced dead on arrival.
