An argument between two Dolphin Secondary School students yesterday took an ugly turn, with one of them now nursing a stab wound to the left abdomen, at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation.
Shane Hackett, 13, of 7 Public Road, La Penitence, was stabbed just about lunch time yesterday.
According to information received, the stabbing may have stemmed from an altercation the two teenagers were involved in sometime last week.
When Kaieteur News arrived at the hospital yesterday, the 13-year-old second former was in the Accident and Emergency Unit being prepared for surgery. He was subsequently treated and admitted to the Male Surgical ward. His condition is being closely monitored.
“They say that the scissors punctured his lungs and they were draining the excess blood out,” said Hackett’s aunt, Donna, told this newspaper.
The woman said she was told that her nephew was proceeding to purchase lunch when his attacker confronted him, and they had a scramble.
“He push Shane and he (Shane) pushed him back and walked away and this other guy ran behind him and pulled out the scissors and stabbed him to his abdomen,” the aunt claimed.
Hackett’s alleged attacker was reportedly handed over by an aunt to the police.
