Shots Fired at Police Officer’s Home

Shots were fired at the home of police corporal Martin Marin on Jaguar Street in Finca Solana area of Corozal. Marin, 35, was inside his home preparing for bed when he heard four loud bangs, which he immediately recognised as gunshots around 11:30 p.m. on Monday. After stepping outside, he heard a motorcycle speeding away.

A white Jeep Cherokee belonging to Inspector Kimara Lopez, parked in the yard, was struck by bullets, with one shot piercing the front windshield. A bullet hit the home’s front screen door. Crime Scene Technicians processed the area, retrieving several 9mm shell casings from the street. Surveillance footage has yet to be reviewed, no suspects have been identified, and statements are still pending as investigations continue.
