Security guard busted with heroin, weed and cocaine

Story PictureHeroin is not a drug commonly known in Belize, but police say, a security guard was busted with that highly potent drug along with a stash of crack cocaine and marijuana. The early morning bust today on Lizarraga Avenue, King’s Park area, is the residence of security guard, twenty nine year old Edison Stamp. Stamp was arraigned this afternoon in the Belize City Magistrate’s Court where he was charged with three counts of Drug Trafficking and two counts of Possession of a Controlled Drug. The drugs were found in amounts of ninety-one point five grams for the crack cocaine, three point five grams of heroin, three point nine grams of powder cocaine and fifty-three grams of marijuana. The drugs were stashed in different home appliances at Stamp’s house. Stamp first pleaded guilty but quickly changed it to not guilty and he was offered bail of six thousand dollars which he met late this evening. His case was adjourned until December sixteenth.
