A man was fatally stabbed by his girlfriend in Grand Riviere, Gros Islet earlier tonight.
The dead man has been identified as Dylan Joseph aka Peacock who is said to be in his 20’s.
The incident reportedly occurred in the vicinity of the Rainbow 2000 bar.
Reports are that the couple were imbibing in alcoholic beverages at the bar located at the bottom flat of his house.
One close neighbour claims that the victim went through his girlfriend’s phone and found “something that he was not suppose to see,” reportedly a text message.
The two began to argue and it escalated to the point where it “became physical.” The duo eventually went outside the bar and it was there that the woman pulled out a knife and began stabbing the victim multiple times.
Joseph fell to the floor and began to bleed profusely.
Emergency services were called right away after relatives became aware, but they were too late.
The man succumbed on the step leading to his apartment.
This is the fifth homicide for the day.
Police arrived on the scene minutes after the stabbing incident.
Family members consoling each other, as the man’s body is being taken away.
