Cop injured after intervening in schoolboys’ brawl
The wound on the Policeman’s head
Police Constable Rameshwar Chunilall is currently nursing a wound inflicted to his head by a schoolboy wielding a piece of wood.
The Police have said that on Thursday, at about 15:30h, the 23-year-old Chunilall, who is attached to the Traffic Department of the Cove and John Police Station, was performing duty along the Hope Public Road when the suspect and another student became engaged in a brawl on the roadway.
Upon seeing this, the Policeman intervened and parted them, but the teenage suspect, who was armed with a piece of wood, turned his attention to the Constable and dealt him one blow to the head.
Colleagues took the injured Chunilall to the Nabaclis Health Center, where he was treated and sent away, but
the teen was arrested and taken to the Cove and John Police Station. His parents were contacted as the investigation continues.
