By Breaking Belize News Staff (HP): Police in Orange Walk are investigating an assault reported during the early hours of New Year’s Day in Trial Farm Village.

The complainant, a 27-year-old mason of Bottom Lagoon Street, reported that around 1:00 a.m. on January 1, he was celebrating the New Year with family members in his yard when an altercation broke out. He said that while he and his brother were seated, a cousin entered the yard and became involved in a physical confrontation with another family member.

The complainant stated that when he attempted to intervene and stop the fight, a male individual known to him arrived carrying a stone and struck him in the face, injuring his nose and causing bleeding.

He reported that the area was well lit by house lights and a fire, allowing him to clearly recognize the alleged attacker. Police later arrived at the scene and were informed of what had occurred.
