Police Commissioner to Deal with Attackers 

A video on social media shows three women attacking a young girl last night in Belize City. The incident happened on Fairweather Street. The video shows the women hitting and kicking the girl, who was left unconscious.

Police Commissioner Chester Williams addressed the incident, stating, “This matter will be dealt with by the police. It’s disheartening to witness the growing lawlessness in our society. When women were fighting, the men stood by, watching, recording, and even encouraging the fight to continue until it escalated to a point where one of them could have been killed. Where is the sense of empathy? And yet, we wonder why some of our children today are so violent.

“Nonetheless, we must send a strong message: those involved in the fight will be charged, and those who stood by, filming and encouraging, will be charged with incitement. I hope they will learn a lesson from this.”
