KINGSTON, Jamaica — A 32-year-old man has been charged following a knife fight at the Norman Manley International Airport (NMIA) in Kingston last week.

Reports are that about 12:55 pm, Murray and a man got into a dispute that became physical. It is alleged that Murray then used a knife to inflict multiple stab wounds to the lower abdomen of the other individual.
