Man Killed in Domestic Dispute in Corozal Identified

Assistant Commissioner of Police Hilberto Romero provided details on the investigation into the death of Anthony Lewis, whose lifeless body was discovered on Sunday, December 22, 2024, at a residence on G Street in Corozal Town. Lewis was found with injuries to his head, and initial investigations revealed that he had gone to the house and engaged in a dispute with the family members there.

According to ACP Romero, a struggle ensued during which Lewis sustained the injuries that ultimately caused his death. The investigation remains ongoing, and the case file will be forwarded to the Director of Public Prosecutions for further directives.

Lewis has a prior relationship with one of the men’s minor daughter. ACP Romero said, “that is correct and he is presently on bail as he was charged and taken to court. That matter is pending trial at the Supreme Court.”

ACP Romero stated that Lewis had no lawful reason to be at the residence and had confronted the family members, leading to the fatal altercation. He said that Lewis confronted the family and that they acted in self-defence.
