One of the juvenile suspects in the alleged attack carried out on two students on the Diamond Access Road on Tuesday evening was interviewed by police in the presence of his father yesterday. The child told cops that the attack was ‘gang-related’ and not a robbery, although items were taken from the teenage victims.
According to the juvenile suspect, a 15-year-old student, one of the two victims, is allegedly a member of the TMF Gang out of the Dolphin Secondary School, while the 16-year-old victim is claiming that his 15-year-old attacker is a member of the ARK Family Gang out of the Carmen Secondary School.
According to investigations so far, the victims and suspects attend the two schools mentioned above and take ‘extra lesson classes’ at a East Bank Demerara location. One of the victims and his 15-year-old schoolmate (juvenile suspect) had a heated argument a day prior to the incident.
Efforts are being made to locate the other juveniles involved. Investigations continue.
One of the teen victims was stabbed during the ordeal. His cellphone and his school mate’s phone and other items were relieved during the attack.
