Serious Assault

Around 12 noon today, Police received a report of a serious assault on Middle Road in Sandys parish in the vicinity of Traditions Restaurant. Details about this incident are unclear at the moment; however, it appears that an altercation took place in the bus lay by across from Traditions Restaurant. As a result, a 17 year old Sandys parish man sustained serious stab wounds to his upper body. He was apparently taken to Port Royal Fire Station by a member of the public where he was treated by EMTs before being rushed to KEMH via ambulance. He is currently in critical but stable condition. A 17 year old St. George’s man has been arrested in connection with the incident.

Police are appealing for any witnesses to this incident or anyone with any information, particularly the individual who took the victim to Port Royal Fire Station, to contact the Western Criminal Investigation Unit on 234-1010.


All incidents are under investigation. Police are appealing to members of the public who have witnessed these incidents or may have information pertaining to them to contact their respective Police Station, Police Headquarters at 295-0011 or the confidential Crimestoppers Hotline on 1 (800) 623-8477.
