San Ignacio Police Seek Public Help in Jose Mejia Murder Investigation

Investigators in San Ignacio Town, Cayo District, are appealing to the public to come forward with any information they may have regarding the killing of Jose Mejia.  Mejia’s body was found yesterday inside the Victor Galvez stadium.

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police: “At this time there’s nothing much that we know just that the police found the body yesterday in a preliminary stage of decomposition. There is not much information forthcoming and so I want to appeal to the public anyone who may have any information pertinent to this investigation to please feel free to call the police 9-1-1 or call the ATIPS number 9-2-2 and provide the information there and then we see how we go from there.”

Reporter: You all do have suspects detained though ?

Chester Williams, Commissioner of Police: “At this time yes I know police are interviewing a number of persons but we cannot say at this time if there is credible information to indicate that they may be involved.”

Mejia was found with stab wounds to the neck and back.
