By Aaron Humes: A Belmopan man is wanted in connection with the shooting death of his father earlier this morning in the capital.

79-year-old Daniel Orlando Castellanos was found in the front hall of his residence at Garza Street, Belmopan, with gunshot injuries to the face.

According to the police, the suspect apparently was annoyed after trying to re-enter the house after leaving earlier following a dispute with his girlfriend.

Daniel Castellanos told the suspect to stop making noise as he was about to go to sleep, and this resulted in him being shot several times before the suspect again left the house and was seen walking around in the yard.

However, police say the suspect has not yet been detained and their investigations continue.
