In other news, a Mexican man is claiming that Belize Customs wrongly took possession of his boat near La Union. The man was capturing video as customs officials were pulling the skiff out of the water, complaining that his vessel was not on the Belize side of the river, but near his farm, on Mexico's side of the river. At the time, the skiff was reportedly laden with cattle feed.

We tried reaching the Customs Department for their side of the story, but up to news time, they had not responded.
