Augustine Coc

Police in Belize City are investigating a murder, which occurred on Friday December 18 in one of the city’s hot zones. Police reported that they were called out to Partridge Street where they found the body of a man with a gunshot to the head. Police identified the person as 28-year-old Augustine Coc.
By all indications, Coc may have just been in the wrong area at the wrong time as he had just been dropped off from work at the corner of Cemetery Road and Partridge Street. He was walking on Partridge Street when he called his wife to ask if she wanted food. His wife says she heard as Coc spoke his last words and a gunshot rang off. She would later learn that he had been killed.
