Man pays for car, gets gun pointed to chest instead of keys
Police are looking for two men in connection with a robbery that occurred early Sunday afternoon. Celso Leal, a thirty-two year old farmer of the San Carlos Area in Orange Walk Town, reported to police that around two-thirty he was relieved of five thousand eight hundred dollars which he intended to use to purchase a vehicle. Leal says he met on Dean Street with Mark James and a man known to him only as ‘Richie’ from whom he was to purchase a green Toyota Camry car. He got into the car with the men and upon handing over the cash to James, instead of getting the keys to the vehicle; it was a black handgun that was pointed to his chest. He was told to exit the car and in fear for his life, he did. James and ‘Richie’ sped off in the direction of West Collet Canal.
