Hattieville resident drowns & San Pedro woman found dead

The lifeless body of thirty six year old Suyapa Hernandez Alvarado was discovered in an apartment complex on the beachside near the San Pedro airstrip.  Hernandez, a Honduran national, was lying on her back on a sofa and covered by a white sheet.  A medical officer certified that she died sometime around five on Tuesday evening.  No signs of violence were observed on the body but a post mortem is scheduled to be performed.

In Belize City, a police pick-up truck pulled up at the morgue at the rear of the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital this evening. The police officers took out a body that was wrapped up out of the truck and placed it onto a gurney to be processed.  The body has been identified as Helen Robinson, a resident of Hattieville Village.  Although the details have not been revealed, foul play has been ruled out. It is believed that Robinson died from drowning.
