In a shocking incident on Wednesday morning, November 5, 2025, two employees of Westrac were robbed at gunpoint while en route to deposit funds at a bank in northern Belize. The event unfolded around 11:00 a.m. on the Belize–Corozal Road in Orange Walk Town, where authorities discovered a GMC Canyon pickup truck abandoned on the roadside. The victims, identified as 33-year-old Arturo Cansino and 44-year-old Artemio Carpiso, recounted being intercepted by two assailants on a dirt bike. The gunmen forcibly seized two bags containing an unspecified sum of cash and cheques. This marks the second high-profile daylight robbery in the region within a week. On October 31, Eric Chi, manager of UNO Gas Station, was similarly targeted outside the company’s premises on the Philip Goldson Highway, with robbers escaping with $50,000. These incidents have raised concerns about public safety and the audacity of criminal activities in the area.
