This afternoon, we spoke to Tourism Minister Anthony Mahler, about the discovery of this body which caused those logistical delays for the cruise industry this morning. He told us what he knew based on his debriefings from officials within the Ministry of Tourism:
Daniel Ortiz
"Can you share any information on that particular situation that maybe any briefing you've received on it?"
Hon. Anthony Mahler - Minister of Tourism & Diaspora Relations
"I've been back and forth with port and other agencies early this morning, my people have been briefing me up to the minute and it has been established that the body was found is a Belizean man and not somebody off the cruise ship, there was some delay in terms of embarkations of the cruise ship passengers but they are on their way now for their tours and things like that."
