This past weekend, Saturday, December 15, 2012, a new Police
Station was inaugurated in the Maya Beach area, now designated as a precinct of
the Placencia Formation in the Stann Creek District, Belize.
The fully furnished and outfitted Police Station is the product of
effective collaboration between the Ministry of National Security, the
Placencia Police Formation and the business community and residents of the
Peninsula, over 70 of whom have donated material, cash and labor.

Flowers. Speaking on behalf of the local business community and residents were

and Warden of the US Embassy. The Building was blessed by Reverend Jeanne
Marechal.
Following the inauguration,
the Commissioner of Police and the officer commanding the Placencia formation
presided over the swear-in of 16 new Special Constables for the area. Another
12 additional special constables will soon be sworn in, for a total of 28 new
special constables for the peninsula.
The names of the 28 special
constables are Shaleni Cawich, Kenneth Ferris, Joel Bo, Herman Choc, Aaron
