A young man, who was chased by three males and chopped by one of them, has been identified as 25-year-old Dwayne Auguste, police said.
The incident occurred around 7 p.m. on Jeremie Street, Castries, near the CDC building facing the market and the court, according to several eyewitness reports.
An eyewitness said “three males were seen running after one unknown rasta” and chopped him on his left hand.
“Only one young male individual was armed with a cutlass, striking the individual. I was on the other side of the road when I saw them chasing after him. I think he got one in his back,” the eyewitness said, pointing out that the incident was a “chase and chop”.
The victim is receiving “medical treatment” from an ambulance, the witness said.
No further details available.
