Is Keon Johnson’s murder gang related?
Keon Johnson
Early on Saturday evening another city resident succumbed to gun violence. This time, it is no different… gang violence was at the root of the murder. Twenty-one year old Keon Johnson is the latest murder victim in what police describe as an ongoing feud between rival gangs in the Port Loyola community. On Saturday evening Johnson was executed in a hail of bullets, as a lone gunman accosted him while walking along Central American Boulevard. Johnson, who had narrowly escaped with his life during a previous attempt on June twenty-eighth, was mortally wounded after being hit multiple times to various parts of the body. Police press officer Raphael Martinez says the incident may be gang-related.

“Police visited the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital where they saw the body of Keon Johnson Francis, twenty-one years old Belizean construction worker of a Belize City address, with multiple gunshot wounds. Investigations revealed that approximately 5:20 p.m. Keon was walking on Central American Boulevard on Fabers Road heading towards the direction of Neal’s Penn Road, when he was approached by a dark complexion male person who fired several shots at him. Keon reportedly ran in front of South Side Butane Depot, where the murderer caught up with him and inflicted the fatal injuries. Keon was pronounced dead at 5:45 p.m. Three Aguila brand, nine millimeter expended shells were retrieved from the scene and police have detained a twenty-three year old Belize City man in connection with this latest homicide.”

“Do police have the motive of that murder on Central American Boulevard? Have you established a motive?”
Raphael Martinez
“Police are actually following some leads but they believe that it is gang-related.”
On June twenty-eighth, Johnson was alighting a pickup truck on Central American Boulevard when he was shot once to the left foot by an assailant he later identified as Norman McKenzie. McKenzie was subsequently arrested and charged with attempted murder despite his mother denying his involvement in the shooting.

“What a great farewell gift ?” I hope when it is ‘hahahhahaaaaa ‘s’ turn to be in the sights of the business end of a 9mm or .45 that he has the same sentiments… This mentality of laughing at our fallen country men is exactly the reason why crime keeps getting worse and our days as a prople are numbered. Typical crabs in a bucket…..
Fallen men, who CHOSE TO LIVE THAT WAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I do not live that way, so I do not expect to fall that way. For sure less chance of falling that way. But whoever lives this way, will fall that way. Come one, these guys are living on the edge everyday! This is what they live for, to kill and be killed. So let them continue, the more they kill the less to worry about. Im happy I dont need to do it
