Dear Editor,
I am a retired United States citizen residing in Punta Gorda, Belize.
I write to commend the two Punta Gorda police officers who intervened on my behalf last Saturday and diffused a contentious verbal altercation and dispute I was having with a local PG auto mechanic and his workers over unfinished work on my vehicle that I had paid them for, in advance, and in full.
Without the officers’ presence and intervention, I would have been subdued by the mechanic and his workers, who were all ganged up against me and demanding that I pay them for unfinished work on my vehicle that I had previously paid them for, in advance, and in full.
Thank you, Punta Gorda police officers!
