Police Shuts Down Fund Raiser For Fire Victims

By on December 30, 2013

The family of Therese Maddision was today ordered to discontinue their fund raising activity in front of their house that burned down in Blackman eddy village on Christmas Day.

According to a family member, the officer Commanding San Ignacio police was passing by the area this morning and stopped his vehicle long enough to order them to immediately stop what they were doing or risk being arrested.

The family member says that since the officer told them that what they were doing is illegal, she tried to ask him what was the procedure they need to follow in order to continue raising funds; but she said, the officer just said that said he did not want to hear about any procedure and that they should immediately stop or he would call for officers to come arrest them.

Half an hour later, the family member said, the police officer stationed in Georgeville arrived at their location with instructions to shut them down.

The Maddison family says they are still in need of assistance as they lost everything in the fire and are appealing to the general public for assistance.
