14-year-old girl stabbed by 29-year-old man

You can now listen to Antigua News articles!

A 14-year-old girl is currently nursing a stab wound to her back following an alleged attack by a 29-year-old man from Bethesda during an unusual incident in Lightfoot.

Reports indicate that the man visited a residence in the area where his daughter was staying with a guardian.

His anger reportedly escalated upon discovering that his daughter was absent, as the guardian had gone to pick her up from school.

The exact sequence of events that followed remains unclear; however, it is alleged that the 29-year-old man stabbed the girl, who was alone in the house at that moment.

She was promptly transported to the hospital, where her injuries were deemed not life-threatening. The injured girl is the granddaughter of the woman who is caring for the man’s daughter.

Authorities actively search for the suspect as they investigate the details surrounding this incident.

    Sad the mother couldn’t or didn’t take the children with her when she fled. This is one example of why it is dangerous to assume that having a father around is always a good thing. If he can’t treat the woman properly, he can’t be trusted around the children either.

    What could’ve been the direct cause of him taking his anger on the teen girl? What role does she play in them keeping the child away from him? Or are they keeping the child from him?

    Every part of this story sounds crazy. Then clearly this man is mentally off. What triggered you that much to stabbing a teen? Cause it couldn’t just be after hearing that they went to collect your child from school.

    Now, he would not see his daughter because he would be in 1735 for attempted murder. Young people, especially young men, need help in dealing with conflict. If he had cared for his daughter, he would have thought twice, walked away to cool off and returned the next day.
