“On Saturday, November 11th, 2023, around ten p.m., Rebecca Cal, of San Martin area, Belmopan, reported that she was inside her store, namely Naybaz Store when a male person entered the establishment and got a beer from the cooler.  The person came to where she was, at which point the male person pulled out a firearm and demanded money and other items.  Shortly thereafter, a second male person entered and they proceeded to rob the customers and stole an amount of cash along with cell phones and other valuables.  The male persons jumped on a motorcycle and they fled off from the area.  We do not have any suspect at this time.”
