And while their families continue to pray for the missing men’s safety, Orange Walk police have yet to recover the body of teenager who is believed to have drowned while fishing in the Honey Camp Lagoon. According to police, eighteen year old Alfonso Cawich, sixteen year old Simon Loria, and nineteen year old Alfredo Buendia went fishing around nine on Monday morning. Four hours later, Cawich decided to change spots and paddled away to another area. His friends say when they went to look for him about half an hour later they saw Cawich signalling to them that his boat was taking on water. The teenager decided to swim for shore, but according to Loria and Buendia, Cawich disappeared beneath the waves. Up to news time tonight, his body had not been recovered.
