Narrative:
A narco-jet, originating in South America, was suspected to have landed in the Graham Creek area of the Toledo District in Belize. The Police Commissioner for Belize believes the drug traffickers originally had attempted to land in two different areas, Bladen and Kanantik, but were unable to land due to local law enforcement presence. The region they eventually landed was in such a remote area that it's expected to take up to 9 hours for police to reach the area. No information on the type of aircraft currently.
