Burglar caught hiding under bed
It’s a good thing that a twenty-one year old Belize City woman decided to call the police instead of walking into her house after noticing something amiss with her front door. The woman, a B.D.F. soldier, had just returned from work around four this morning when she made the discovery. Police arrived shortly after her call and immediately conducted a search inside the building on Central American Boulevard. Lo and behold, when they reached the bedroom they found forty-four year old Glenford Budd trying to make himself invisible under the bed. Aside from suffering acute embarrassment, Budd also had to explain what he was doing with a cell phone that the homeowner identified as her own. This morning, Budd was taken to Magistrate Court where he pled guilty to the charge of burglary. He was sentenced to five years in Hattieville Prison.
