By Breaking Belize News Staff: Two teenagers, ages 15 and 17, have been charged with theft after police allegedly caught them riding a motorcycle stolen from a security guard’s yard in the Vista Del Mar area of Ladyville.
The minors, a 15-year-old from Ladyville and a 17-year-old from Hattieville, were taken before the Belize Family Court on Thursday, November 5, following their detention earlier in the week.
According to police reports, the motorcycle, a black 2024 Lifan valued at $2,500, belongs to a 34-year-old Rangers Security guard who resides on Red Snapper Street in Vista Del Mar Phase 2.
The security guard reported that he had parked his motorcycle outside his home on the night of November 2, 2026, before going to sleep. He said he had kept the keys in his possession and had not authorized anyone to use the motorcycle.
Around 2:50 a.m. on November 3, he and his common-law wife were awakened by police officers knocking on their door. The officers asked whether he owned a motorcycle, prompting him to check his yard, where he discovered it was missing.
Police explained that while patrolling the Philip Goldson Highway, they spotted two young males riding a motorcycle without its lights on, heading from the Lord’s Bank junction toward the Burrell Boom junction.
Officers intercepted the teenagers, who allegedly admitted to taking the motorcycle from the security guard’s residence.
Police subsequently showed him a photograph of the recovered motorcycle, which he positively identified as his property. He later visited the Ladyville Police Station, where he formally identified the motorcycle and made a theft report.
Both teenagers were charged with theft in the presence of a Justice of the Peace before being taken to the Belize Family Court.
The case remains before the court.
