Teen stabs Mon Repos resident during argument

A 24-year-old man of Mon Repos on the East Coast Demerara (ECD) is now hospitalised after he was stabbed about his body by a teenage boy during an argument at Beterverwagting, ECD.
Police stated that on Friday at about 21:50h at the Beterverwagting Main Road, ECD, the victim was taking a drink alone when the teenager stopped in and an argument broke out.
As a result, the teen reportedly whipped out a knife and dealt the victim several stabs about his body. He later escaped on a bicycle.
Following the incident, the injured man was picked up in an unconscious state, and escorted to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) where he was admitted a patient in the Emergency Unit.
Police said checks were made for the teenager at his residence but he was not found. Further checks are presently being made for the suspects as investigations continue.
Only a week ago two men were admitted patients at the New Amsterdam Hospital after they reportedly injured each other during an altercation at Heathburn Village, East Bank Berbice (EBB).
Martin Chesney, 46, a cane harvester of Heathburn Village, EBB, was identified as one of the injured men while the identity of the other was not released by the Police.
It was reported that the suspect and Chesney were involved in a heated argument and sometime after, Chesney was found lying on the ground with a wound to his lower left arm but the alleged suspect was nowhere in sight.
Chesney was then taken to the New Amsterdam Hospital where he was treated and admitted a patient. Soon after, the alleged suspect was also located in the medical facility nursing a wound to his left side chest.
