A student-teacher was chopped by a known young man of Ti Rocher, Micoud at about 3:30 p.m. yesterday (Feb. 18).
Reports are that Kerby Phillip, 23, had just gotten off a bus near a supermarket when the young man chopped him on his left arm.
A trail of blood was seen from the main road leading to the victim’s home, about 300 feet from the incident.
Sources said Phillip was admitted at St. Jude Hospital and he’s scheduled to undergo surgery.
St. Lucia News Online (SNO) understands that the accused was warned along with two others by the police after a report was made by the victim’s mother after the men went into the victim’s yard.
The Police Press Office has confirmed that the alleged attacker is currently in police custody. He is expected to be charged soon.
