In other news about crime, an overnight burglary at the Central American Health Science University near the Boom cutoff inconvenienced some sixty students who gathered inside the lecture hall today for a seminar on forensic medicine.  The theft of a safe containing cash and legal documents has also set back the university.  It is believed that the burglary is an inside job as the thief or thieves targeted specific areas within both buildings.  According to Keisha Lynn Estelle, the school’s administration manager, they had just finished preparing for the conference on Thursday evening and when they arrived on campus this morning they found that the buildings had been broken into.

“Yes we have.  We’re looking at a little over five thousand Belize dollars in our items.”

“A sprawling compound such as this one, one would ask about either security or whether or not this type of incident has occurred here before.  Can you speak to us a bit on that as well?”

Keisha Lynn Estelle

“Sure.  Last year we also had this same situation regarding our library was burglarized and it is a still pending matter with the Police Department here in Ladyville.”
