Justin “Moto” Alvarez is the latest Belize City man who has been arrested and charged for being a member of a gang. He is accused of being part of the Supal Street Bloods/4th Genna Gang. Over the past few weeks, several of these arrests have been made. The family of these men have come forward, saying the men are being targeted by the police. Police Commissioner Chester Williams refutes these claims and says that over the past years more than 140 men have been charged with being a member of a gang. A majority of those men have been convicted of the crime. Williams says it is part of the department’s long term crime-fighting strategy.
