And going back to Orange Walk, early this morning, the body of a man was found near the garbage dump. He has been identified as a fish vendor but so far, police have classified it as a death investigation. However, police press officer, ASP Fitzroy Yearwood, noted that the body had signs of foul play. Here's more:

"It's a body of a fish vendor in Chan Pine Ridge Road, this body was found sometime after 6 this morning. He had some injuries on him, and he has since been identified as Sergio Jovannie Valdez, 50 years old, fish vendor. His address is unknown at this time, but we have our investigators in that area from since the body was found earlier and they're trying to canvass to see what information they can pick up. Yes, police officers on the scene are saying that he has physical injuries to the face so as soon as I get more details on that, I will send that to you also."
