No official report has been made available regarding the sudden death of 30-year-old Noel Romero, who was found dead on Monday, January 27th inside his room. Romero worked at a resort north of San Pedro Town and after failing to report to work, his motionless body was discovered by some of his colleagues.

An unofficial report states that police visited the resort’s staff living quarters and observed Romero’s body on a bed face-up partially covered with a white bed sheet. Upon making checks on the motionless body, no injuries could be immediately observed. Romero’s body was transported to the Dr. Otto Rodriguez San Pedro Polyclinic II where he was pronounced dead on arrival by Dr. Joshua Canul. The body was later transported to the Karl Heusner Memorial Hospital in Belize City for a post-mortem examination.
