ACC Holds Candlelight Vigil for Slain Student  

A candlelight vigil is underway at the Anglican Cathedral College where students, teachers and parents are gathered to mourn the loss of fifteen-year-old Lamisha Moody.  The high school student was gunned down on Wednesday night here in Belize City, as she stood in front of a shop in the Jane Usher Boulevard neighborhood.  Moody, along with Troy Hyde, a well-known street figure, was shot and killed during an attack in which Hyde was the intended target.  The teenage minor had gone out to purchase foam plates ahead of a class trip when she was shot and killed.  In the wake of the deadly shooting, the faculty and staff of A.C.C. issued a release condemning the wanton gun violence that claimed the lives of Lamisha Moody and Troy Hyde.  On Thursday, the Commissioner of Police indicated that the vehicle believed to have been used in the deadly assault has been impounded.  An arrest is yet to be made, however, police remain on high alert in the event of a reprisal.
