Thousands jacked from Palm Island Nightclub in early morning robbery

While the burglary of the church occurred in the absence of its congregation, a popular nightclub was also robbed shortly after the last of its flock went home early this morning. After a successful night of its French Kiss dance, three masked men barged into the Palm Island nightclub. After five this morning, the gunmen simply stepped through the front door and held a gun to the manager’s head. They demanded to know the location of the money earned from the night’s sales. The businessman took the robbers to the safe and they ordered him to open it.  The gunmen took at least a reported seventeen thousand dollars.  They then ordered the manager to go upstairs and show them the residence but they did not take anything and instead demanded the keys to a Buick Sport Utility Vehicle. The robbers escaped in the manager’s vehicle but police officers intercepted the vehicle later in the morning on Fredrick’s Street.  Inside the SUV, officers found two knives that are the property of Palm Island. It’s not the first time that the club has been robbed and no one has been detained.

    It is just not worth it to open a business in Belize; your life depends on it.
    Why even bother in the first place.
    If you have some extra money to save, put it in the bank or give it to charity like I do.

    I’ve been telling john a long time, to step security

    Stygian, you put security guards lives at risk, and even if you are caught on camera in Belize a man can still be sent home with a pat on his butt.
    That is justice in Belize. Save your money in the bank, or give it to charity, works for me.

    I have been reading your comments for quite some time and have been keeping my own comments to myself. To be honest with you, you seem to have some sort of mental issues. Your comments are inconsistent and usually you are belittling someone i.e. “Govmnt, Police, BDF etc etc etc” and at the same time you are trying to put your own self on a pedestal i.e. “I give money to charity etc etc”.

    You must be a very sad lonely person to have nothing else to do but to comment in such a manner. You are not a realist you simply are full of fecal matter.

    Islander………. I second you on MADDYVANDIJK/DER-IDIOT!!!!!!!!

    ISLANDER, I will abstain and refrain from the name callings since I am the one here who is capable of filling an empty void with words that holds true meanings.
    (REALITY Check FOR YOU):

    From your profile you sit your … all day on the beach keeping records of every black man that is supposedly and illegally entering the islands, and committing all the crimes on the islands, like selling weed, hustling, or sexually harassing white tourist women for sex. According to all your comments black men are in no way from the islands, because it would make no sense to you since a suntan was rather redundant on blacks, and that they are really the rats of the society.

    (NOTE: READ YOUR OWN COMMENTS OVER THE MONTHS) RELATING TO ALL CRIMES IN BELIZE CITY OR ON THE ISLANDS. THEN DO THE ANALISIS FOR YOURSELF IF YOU ARE CAPABLE, AND THEN DECIDE IF YOUR OPINIONS ABOUT THE BLACKS ON THE ISLANDS MAKES YOU MENTAL, or just confused.

    In my final comment to you: unlike many here on this site I will always speak my mind, I will be honest, I will be critical and I will make no excuses for those choosing to be lazy, incompetent, and inferior. If this makes me come off like a racist, so ….. be it.

    You might not like the things I saw, but you have to ……. accept it.
