Gunmen fire at farmer on Buena Vista Road

CrimeGunmen fire at farmer on Buena Vista Road

Paul Patt, 32, of Buena Vista, Corozal District, told police that two robbers fired twice at him with a shotgun while he was travelling on his motorcycle on the Buena Vista Road on his way to Caledonia at about 3:00 p.m. yesterday afternoon.

Patt, a farmer, was on his way to pick up some money owed to him.

Patt told police that he saw three men standing on the road with shotguns, and their faces were covered with masks.

On seeing the bandits, Patt quickly turned back, but the bandits fired twice at him.

Patt, however, managed to escape uninjured. He drove through a road that took him to Libertad, and from there he went to the Corozal Police Station, where he made a formal report.

Police searched the area, but could not find the bandits.

No one has yet been detained.
