Foster’s body was found a day after he was kidnapped from his home at Savanna Guest House on the George Price Highway. His body was found by a resident of the Rivera area of Belmopan on Tuesday night. Today, police revealed that Foster had been stabbed as many as ten times and the motive is believed to be robbery. His nine-millimetre Smith and Wesson and a twelve-gauge shotgun were stolen. His vehicle was found abandoned in some bushes in the Mahogany Heights community, where it is suspected that his killers are from. Though one person was detained this morning and is being held at the Belmopan Police Station, investigators know that he did not act alone. News Five’s Hipolito Novelo reports.
