A tragic double homicide has rocked the Cedar Street community in Belize City, where 66-year-old Evadnie Jones and her 39-year-old son, Luke Jones, were fatally shot in their yard on Friday night.

The Ministry of Home Affairs has strongly condemned the killings, describing them as a “senseless and brutal” act of violence against innocent civilians.

“There is absolutely no justification for murder, especially the cold-blooded killing of innocent civilians,” said Minister of Home Affairs Kareem Musa.

The Belize Police Department has launched a full investigation and pledged to act swiftly to bring those responsible to justice. Commissioner of Police Dr. Richard Rosado said, “We will not rest until those responsible are brought to justice.“ We are committed to protecting every citizen and working with communities to counter those who seek to disrupt peace and instill fear.”

In response to the incident, additional police resources have been deployed to the area to prevent further violence or retaliation. The ministry said there is an urgent need for stronger gun and gang legislation to address the growing threat of random violence.
