More details have emerged regarding Friday afternoon’s shooting on Amandala Drive in Belize City.
Around 4:16 p.m., 26-year-old Earl Anderson, a Belizean handyman of Vernon Street, was socialising with three other men in the yard when a gunman on a bicycle rode up and unleashed a volley of gunfire.
Anderson was struck twice in the body. Miraculously, the other men escaped unscathed.
Police responded quickly to the scene, and Anderson was rushed to the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital, where he remains in the Intensive Care Unit in very critical condition.
Authorities have not yet released a motive for the shooting, but the investigation remains active.
