Three arrested for Corozal robbery

In other crime news three men from the Corozal District have been arrested for a robbery which occurred last week in Santa Clara Village. On October ninth, twenty-two year old housewife Marcela Gomez reported that three men came to her house, hit her and robbed her at knifepoint of jewelry worth over thirteen hundred dollars. She was able to identify two of her attackers and as a result police have arrested and charged twenty-seven year old Carl Sanker of San Antonio Village, twenty-six year old Javier Maldonado of Corozal Town and Higinio Medina, twenty-eight, of Concepcion Village. Further investigations led to the discovery of nearly a pound of marijuana hidden outside of Corozal Town and the trio has been charged with drug trafficking in addition to robbery.
