City grocer hit by robbers

A Belize City businesswoman is over five thousand dollars poorer tonight, and she’s pointing the finger at three of her customers. Zhen Yan Li told police that on Friday afternoon three men entered her shop on Faber’s Road Extension and ordered a five gallon bottle of water. When she opened the burglar bar door to serve them, one of the men put a gun to Li’s head and demanded money. Li told police that she was robbed of cash and goods totalling five thousand, seven hundred and eighty-eight dollars in value. The assailants escaped on bicycles.
