Traffic Charges Dropped Against John Briceño
P.U.P. leader John Briceño saw charges of Negligent Harm, Failure to Report an Accident and Driving a Vehicle without Due Care and Attention tossed out of the Orange Walk Magistrate’s Court today. He had been charged in February of 2015 based on a report made by Christopher Hendricks, the driver for cross-town political rival Gaspar Vega. On January twenty-second, 2015, Briceño was accused of running over Hendricks’ foot in a gold Toyota Land Cruiser Prado. But he maintained that the incident never happened and was made up by Vega and Hendricks as a tool for political intimidation. It was not immediately clear why the case was dropped.
