By BBN Staff: There are reports that a cane farmer whose name has still not been released, was found this morning with gunshot wounds to his chest on the Rio Hondo River bank in Santa Rosa Village, Corozal.
The farmer was allegedly working in the fields when his truck began experiencing mechanical problems and he decided to stay and fix it but never made it home last night.
This morning, his family went out in search of him and when they didn’t find him in the cane field, they checked the river bank, making the grim discovery.
According to reports, the farmer’s truck was also burnt. More will be posted on this story when more details are made available.
