Double murder in St. Margaret’s

HeadlineDouble murder in St. Margaret’s

ST. MARGARET’S Village, Cayo District, Thurs. Aug. 5, 2021– This morning the bodies of two men were found on a dirt road in the Green Hills area of St. Margaret’s Village in the Cayo District. The victims were found lying close to each other, with a bike and four sacks near their bodies. They were discovered by farmers, who reported that they both appeared to have been beaten badly.

The victims have since been identified as Jose Bolon and David Murillo, both residents of the village and close friends, according to the wife of one of the deceased.

She shared that they had gone fishing around 7:00 o’clock last night but never returned home. Having a feeling of foreboding, she called Murillo’s wife, who informed her that she also was waiting for her husband to return.

She said that the men would also go fishing in the village but would never be away for such an extended period of time, and that made her worried.

Bodies of men found

This morning, the two women’s greatest fears were realized when they were notified of the deaths of both of the men.

No details about this recent, heinous double homicide have yet been released by police.
