An Unidentified Man Found Murdered in Spanish Lookout

The lifeless body of an unidentified man was discovered by San Ignacio police on Tuesday night in an area of the Spanish Lookout Community known as Mennonite Beach.  Sometime before nine o’clock, officers at the precinct were alerted of a corpse roughly one mile from the Ant Trail Road which leads to the Belize Old River.  Upon arrival, they observed the nude remains of a Hispanic individual with what appeared to be an open wound to the left side of the head.  The body was also said to be in an initial stage of decomposition.  Also on the scene was a bloodstained, blue shirt with two holes.  An open criminal investigation is taking place and police are yet to identify the murder victim.
