Cops bust city man with two pounds of crack

Story PictureYou’d be hard pressed to find a routine crack bust on this newscast but the one that took place Tuesday night in Belize City was anything but routine. According to police, around ten-thirty they noticed a man running from the approach of their squad car. The suspect, identified as thirty-five year old Russell Hemsley, was apprehended and brought back to where he was first spotted. There, in five plastic bags, police discovered over two pounds of crack cocaine. Hemsley has been charged with drug trafficking.
