An argument over a parking space in Kitty, Georgetown has left three men injured, police say.
The “brawl”, according to a police report, occurred yesterday around 08:20hrs at D’Andrade Street. Kinray Joseph, a 36-year-old Rural Constable; Kennedy Barky, 34, a taxi driver; and Gordon Branch, 51, also a taxi driver were involved in the said incident.
On Monday, May 16, 2022, about 08:15 hrs. Branch, who throws “box hand” with Joseph’s mother, went to drop off his money and parked his car blocking the entrance to the said yard.
Using explicit language, Barky told Branch that it was unreasonable for him to park his car in a manner that blocks the entrance. Following this point, an argument ensued between the two.
Joseph who was in his house heard the argument and sought to make peace, during which Barky pulled a knife from his pants pocket and dealt Joseph several stabs about his body, including his neck.
Branch then tried to separate them, during which he was stabbed in his right hand. Branch then went to his car, took out a cutlass, and dealt Barky a chop to his left hand.
The matter was reported to Kitty Police Station, and they were all taken by ambulance to the Georgetown Public Hospital Corporation. Barky was admitted as a patient. Joseph is being observed in the accident and emergency ward and Branch was treated and sent away.
Investigations are ongoing.
