On Saturday a security guard reported that three men held him up while he was doing duties at the Belize District Education Center located on Mahogany Street Extension. One of them placed a knife to the right side of his abdomen and demanded the keys to the building. Fearing for his life he complied and handed the keys. The male persons were not able to get into the building and as a result he was robbed of $199.00. They also took 8 pieces of full length steel from the compound. They then hopped over the fence and walked towards the basketball court and made good their escape.
