Investigators of the Royal Turks and Caicos Police are investigating the report of a stabbing that occurred on Tuesday 26 July 2016.
The complainant reported that around 6:13PM on that date, he caught a jitney from Gracebay to Down-Town, Providenciales. He offered to pay the driver $2 (two dollars) for his service but the driver refused it and requested to be paid $3 (three dollars) instead. After the complainant explained to the driver that is all he has an argument ensued which resulted in a fight. During the fight, the driver stabbed the complainant in the throat and fled the scene.
As a result, police officers visited the scene where the victim was met and taken to the Cheshire Hall Medical Centre where he was treated for non-life threatening injuries and later discharged.
Investigations are ongoing into this matter.
