Carmelita villager found dead with shirt tied around neck

There was another murder over the weekend but that one occurred in the Orange Walk District. There are more questions than answers in this case and while details are sketchy, it is known that the victim, sixty-seven year old Manuel Salazar was found inside his house in Carmelita Village around noon on Sunday. Police says there was a shirt tied around Salazar’s neck which suggests that he may have been strangled but as to when or why, this has not yet been determined. It is also known that Salazar lived alone. The cops are now looking for Julio Martinez in connection with the incident. A post mortem has not yet been concluded.
