Police are investigating the unlawful wounding of a man and a woman from Linden after the two got into a physical fight on Wednesday involving stab wounds and a chop to the finger.
Inquiries disclosed that the persons involved are a 32-year-old female supervisor attached to Church’s Linden Branch and a 29-year-old male car driver who resides at Block 22 Wismar Linden.
The wounding was inflicted on February 17, 2021 about 21:00 hours at the above-mentioned address.
The report states that the female went home after a day out which led to a heated argument over her whereabouts for the entire day. This further led to her spouse arming himself with a knife, placing it to her neck and threatening to kill her.
He then left the knife on the kitchen counter but the female in return picked up the knife and dealt the victim one stab wound causing him to receive injury.
The male subsequently went into the living room, armed himself with a cutlass and dealt her several broad side about her body, causing her to receive a chop wound to her right index finger.
They were both taken to the Linden Hospital Complex where they were seen and examined by Dr. Anderson. The female was treated and sent away but was thereafter arrested and placed into custody.
Her spouse was admitted a patient suffering a punctured lung. He was transferred to the Georgetown Public Hospital to undergo surgery.
The cutlass and knife were retrieved by the Police and lodged as exhibits. An investigation is ongoing
