A 35-year-old man was last night admitted a patient at the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation (GPHC) nursing a stab wound to his chest.
Reports reaching this publication are that the man, Joel McCordy, a taxi driver, was hired to take a passenger to Parika, East Bank Essequibo. This publication understands that while on the West Coast of Demerara the passenger attempted to rob McCordy during which he was stabbed in the vicinity of his chest.
Although information is still sketchy as to how the man was able to flee his assailant this publication has learnt that the man who hails from Supply, Mahaica, was first rushed to the West Demerara Regional Hospital where it was discovered that he had a wound to his left side chest.
His condition was deemed severe enough for him to be referred to the GPHC for further medical attention.
At the GPHC the man was in a stable condition but a chest tube was required to allow for the expansion of his lung to aid breathing. Medical officials after attending to the young man last night admitted him to the Intensive Care Unit.
