A Vehicle is Impounded Following Weekend Double Murder in Orange Walk

Junior Triminio

Junior Triminio was laid to rest on Wednesday in his hometown of Orange Walk.  His memorial service and funeral procession was attended by family and friends, including close associates who are also members of the Back-a-Town Crips, a local street gang which Triminio headed.  Since his execution, police have been on high alert in anticipation of a retaliatory attack.  They have also been investigating the weekend double homicides that claimed Triminio’s life, as well as that of nineteen-year-old Christopher Calderon.  While there has been no arrest, police have been able to locate the vehicle used in the deadly incident.
