Teenager Stabbed during Robbery Attempt

A 16-year-old student was stabbed during a robbery attempt in the city last night.

The young man told police that around 9:30 he was walking on Central American boulevard when he was approached by a person who he described as being of East Indian descent. He said the man demanded money and when he refused, the assailant pulled out a silver colored object and stabbed him to the left side of his back and to the left side of his chest. The assailant then fled towards Gibnut Street and his victim was treated and released from the KHMH.
