There are many run-down and dilapidated dwellings in Belize City, and most people would readily discard the complaints of the injustice done to the occupants of those dwellings, but the following factual story is about an effort by none-less-than-anonymous-demons who are setting the stage to steal a piece of land not far from their posh compound.
In the midst of Belize City, not far from the downtown area there is a prize piece of land that the real-estate demons have been hovering over for several months.
The most recent incidents occurred during the night in early February, then another on the 23rd. and another attempt in the wee-hours of the 25th. 2023.
The evidence of the attempt on the 25th. of February was clearly more intense, as the (presumed / hired-arsonist) arsonist apparently frustrated, made a more brazen attempt with what is believed to be more fire-starting accelerant.
Yes, on 3 separate occasions an arsonist attempted to set the place on fire, which indicates that it is no accident, but an intentional effort of arson.
If in the event the arsonist had succeeded and if any of the occupants were killed because of the fire it would then be a homicide; ( of note are 4 school-age children and a parent that call it home ).
The location of dwelling and its condition are unsightly and certainly an unattractive blemish on efforts to make the city more attractive, but arson is the work of criminals and or real-estate demons.
The identity of the occupants are being kept confidential as it should be an ongoing criminal investigation, no matter how poor the occupants are, or how rich the real-estate demons are.
