But while tourists are canceling their Covid restricted Caye trips 10 Belizeans were being arraigned for a Caye Caulker bound joy Ride.
And funnily enough, that was the name of the boat "The Pan di Joy Ride' which was caught on Saturday, August 14th before it could leave shore with a crowd that the cops deemed a sizable social gathering.
And today almost two weeks later the alleged organizers and attendees of said joyride all pleaded not guilty when they were arraigned in the court of Senior Magistrate, Tricia Pitts- Anderson.
Tonight, we know the alleged organizers as 51-year-old, Osman Black, and 20-year-old Evan Thompson. They were charged with inciting people to contravene the Public Health Regulation and hosting a private gathering respectively.
But while Black and Thompson are the alleged organizers 8 others were also arraigned alongside them for the charge of attending an illegal gathering, they are: 29-year-old Kaylyn Marin, 19-year-old Damalia Vasquez, 26-year-old, Crystal Choco, 30-year-old Arbunie Carla Lopez, 26-year old Marie Berry, 22-year-old, Keke Requena, and 25-year-old Nerisie Lew is.
All 10 defendants were granted self bail in the sum of $1,000.00 which they were all able to meet.
