Danny Conorquie Foundation hosts backpack drive

By BBN Staff: The Danny Conorquie Foundation today donated backpacks to children in need in Georgeville, Cayo.

Mother of the fallen hero, Jean Conorquie is the founder of the foundation.

Miss Jean secured donations from various entities to assist in the backpack drive in honor of her son.

Danny lost his life on September 25, 2014 when he was fatally shot at the Caracol Archeological Site in Cayo. Danny was on duty as a Special Constable of the Tourism Police Unit. He had dreamed of being a police officer to serve his country to the best of his abilities.

The 20-year-old was shot and killed while tourists visited the sites and a short video emerged of tourists hearing the shots while being at the top of one of the temples.

It is widely suspected that Conorquie was murdered by illegal loggers since prior to Danny’s murder, the tourism police had captured 5 horses which signaled that the illegal loggers used horses to haul wood from the Chiquibul.
