“I received a briefing from OC Corozal about an hour and a half ago that the victim may have gone to some jewelry repair shop and while he was there in his vehicle two persons came on a motorcycle and fired several shots in the vehicle. He was caught and eventually he was rushed to the hospital and he later succumbed to his injuries. That is what I have so far.”
