Thieves Also Target Corozal Free Zone

Thieves were also busy up north, as a business at the Corozal Free Zone was broken into. The businessman told police that when he arrived at his store, he discovered that the bars securing the business were tampered with. Further checks confirmed his worst fears that the thief or thieves had forced open a safe that contained an undisclosed amount of cash. A.C.P. Romero says investigators are trying to determine who the perpetrators are.
