Retired American Robbed at Gunpoint in Orange Walk

A terrifying home invasion in Orange Walk has left a retired American shaken and police on high alert. Around 9:30 on Thursday morning, David Greer was in his yard near mile two on Pine Ridge Road when three men approached him, one of them pressed a gun to his back and forced him inside his home. Once inside, the intruders tied him up and demanded access to his safe. Fearing for his life, Greer gave up the password. The thieves made off with a large sum of cash and a 2022 Toyota Hilux, altogether worth over a hundred and fifteen thousand dollars. After they fled, Greer managed to free himself and call the police. So far, no arrests have been made, and the investigation is ongoing.
