Why was Policeman’s Residence in Corozal Shot

Late Monday night, a police officer’s home in Corozal Town came under fire, and an investigation is underway to uncover the motive behind the shooting. According to a report, gunmen targeted a vehicle parked at Corporal Martin Marin’s residence. The incident occurred sometime before midnight on Jaguar Street in the Finca Solana area. Corporal Marin reported that he was getting ready for bed when he heard four loud bangs, which he immediately recognized as gunshots. Rushing outside, he saw a motorcycle speeding away and noticed that a Jeep Cherokee, belonging to Inspector Kimara Lopez, had been hit on the front windshield. The white Jeep was parked in the yard at the time. Another bullet struck the front screen door of the house. Crime scene technicians recovered several nine-millimeter shell casings from the street, but it’s unclear if any surveillance cameras captured the shooters. So far, no arrests have been made, and the reason for targeting the residence remains unknown.
