And while the Jaguars will get to play football in Haiti, over in Honduras, the police didn't play when they caught up with suspected Belizean coastal pirates.

These are believed to be the same pirates who have been committing various crimes at sea in Belizean waters and hightailing it across the maritime boundary to escape authorities.

But now they've been caught and it was only through a combined effort of the Coast Guard and the police department, along with their Honduran counterparts, which allowed them to capture the six men who have been at large weeks now.

Today, the Coast Guard celebrated this victory, and Courtney Menzies spoke with the commandant about hat happened next and other maritime threats that are still live. Here is that story.

As we told you yesterday, the Coast Guard believes the pirates would have struck again in Belize soon if they had not been caught.
