Man robbed of US$8,000 while having dinner

A US citizen visiting Belize is out of much more cash than he planned to spend when he went out to eat on Monday evening. Sixty-nine year old Phillip Hikey of Oregon U.S.A, reported to police that he parked his rented Toyota Prado at a restaurant on Marine Parade Boulevard from six p.m. to six-forty-five, while he ate inside. During that time, someone broke into the vehicle through the rear window and stole his carry-on bag, which contained his clothes, passport and eight thousand US dollars in cash.
