Heading back to the Belize District….just minutes after the murder of Nathan Underwood at mile twenty-one on the Phillip Goldson Highway, there was a shooting on the Old Northern Highway in Sand Hill Village. A twenty-six year old American national was shot once in her rear as she slept with her common-law-husband at their home in the village. Police are investigating the shooting and believe that Raymond Dominguez was the intended target.

“On the same date, at about ten-forty-five p.m., acting on another shooting report, police visited about a half mile on the Old Northern Highway, Sand Hill Village. Upon arrival, the victim Rosalind Milligan had already been taken to the K.H.M.H. for treatment. Checks made at the K.H.M.H. with Rosalind Milligan, twenty-six year old unemployed American national. She was seen suffering from a single gunshot wound to her left buttons. Investigation reveals that she and her husband, Raymond Dominguez, were in bed when they heard several gunshots. Apparently someone fired the shots at their house which penetrated the wall, causing the injury to Rosalind Milligan. I must say that the walls of the house are of plycem. Milligan is currently at the K.H.M.H. undergoing treatment.”
