Antigua and Barbuda has witnessed its seventh homicide of the year as police launch a probe into the death of a 34-year-old resident from Golden Grove.
The victim succumbed to his injuries in the hospital, over a week after he was reportedly assaulted by a group of men.
The man sought medical attention at the Sir Lester Bird Medical Centre on September 9, informing doctors of the brutal attack.
Sadly, he lost consciousness shortly afterward and was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, never regaining consciousness before passing away on Sunday.
Details regarding the number and identities of the assailants remain unclear, leaving the community in uncertainty following this tragic loss of life.
