Teen charged with wounding with intent after bar fight

ST THOMAS, Jamaica – A 19-year-old boy was charged with wounding with intent after stabbing a man with a pair of scissors earlier this month.

The teenager is Devon Scott, otherwise called ‘Tommy’, of Morant district, Morant Bay, St Thomas.

Reports from the Morant Bay Police are that about 11:40 pm on September 2, Scott was at a bar when an argument developed between him and another man that escalated into a tussle. Scott subsequently used scissors to stab the man several times.

The man was transported to hospital where he was admitted in critical condition. Scott was taken into custody where he was later charged.

His court date is being finalised.
