COROZAL TOWN, BELIZE — A brutal targeted assassination has claimed the life of a local automobile entrepreneur, marking the second violent attempt on his life within three months. Calvin Myers, 36, from Calcutta Village, was executed with a single gunshot to the head while entering Hotel Martin on First Avenue around 8:00 PM Thursday evening.
According to eyewitness accounts and preliminary police investigations, Myers had just been dropped off at the establishment when an unidentified assailant emerged from the roadside and delivered the fatal point-blank shot. The perpetrator immediately fled the scene in a waiting vehicle parked nearby, demonstrating calculated premeditation.
This homicide represents an escalation of violence against Myers, who survived a previous shooting incident in November 2025 within the same municipality. The recurrence suggests either an unresolved criminal vendetta or ongoing tensions within the local business community.
Law enforcement authorities have launched a comprehensive investigation but have yet to establish a motive or make any arrests. The Brazen nature of the attack in a public location has raised concerns about public safety and organized crime in the region.
The case continues to develop as police pursue multiple investigative avenues. Additional information is anticipated during the News 5 evening broadcast at 6:00 PM as investigators work to unravel the circumstances behind this targeted killing.
