By Aaron Humes: A chef lost his life during a fishing trip near English Caye. Josimar Toledano, a 36-year-old chef from San Roman Village, died under circumstances that are currently being investigated.
According to police, Toledano was part of a group of seven individuals, who went on an 8-day fishing trip. Earlier today six of the men went diving in canoes approximately 800 feet away from the boat, while Toledano remained on board to cook. During their 2-hour dive, one of the men spotted someone floating in the water and rushed to investigate, discovering Toledano’s lifeless body.
Toledano was pulled out of the water and attempts were made to perform CPR, but unfortunately, he had already died. The body was then transported to Belize City, where police assistance was sought.
The police retrieved Toledano’s body and conducted an initial examination, which revealed no signs of injury. The body was subsequently taken to Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital (KHMH), where Toledano was pronounced dead at 4:35 pm. A post-mortem examination is pending to determine the cause of death.
