In crime news, a taxi driver picked up by police for questioning over the weekend has been charged with rape. Thirty-five years old Austin Rivero of Antelope Street in Belize City also faces charges of indecent assault in connection with an incident shortly after four am on Friday. A twenty-six year old woman has alleged that Rivero offered her a ride home from Miami Nites club but took her instead to Roger’s Stadium and raped her.
