Ballistic Report for Allyson Major’s Death In; Police Officer Soon to be Charged

Allyson Major Jr.

No one has been charged for the death of Allyson Major Junior. He was fatally shot in downtown Belize City on July sixteenth.  It has been thirteen days since Major Junior died at the hands of cops.  The victim was pursued by police officers and the chase ended at the foot of the Swing Bridge with Major Junior’s death.  Commissioner of Police Chester Williams has appointed a Special Investigation Team to look into the circumstances surrounding the shooting death of the former teacher.  Last Friday, the department received the findings of a ballistic report, which has since been forwarded to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions. ComPol Williams says they are awaiting directives from the D.P.P.

“Regrettably we just managed to get that file to the D.P.P. office on Friday because we were awaiting the ballistic report from the forensic service. That report was received Friday afternoon and right away that file was sent to the office of the D.P.P. and so I am expecting that we are getting a feedback from them and hopefully by the end of the day today or tomorrow we will be able to move forward with charges with the officers concerned.”

The officers involved in the shooting will remain suspended from active duty until such time.
