Man Shot Dead on Secret Beach, Ambergris Caye

The Secret Beach on Ambergris Caye is known as a laid-back tourism getaway several miles from San Pedro Town. But on Thursday night, the high-end entertainment hub was the scene of a fatal shooting. Forty-six-year-old Steven Arceo, who lives and works on the beach, was shot and killed inside a property on Thursday night. The complainant told police that Arceo had entered the property through a window and was shot dead. But family and friends of the deceased say that while Arceo had a troubled past, he had tried to reform his life and was really someone who could be trusted in the area.
