Victim stabbed outside CAL ticket office
(CNS): A teenager who was stabbed outside the Cayman Airways headquarters on Roberts Drive in George Town yesterday afternoon at around 5:10 is in hospital recovering from what police said were non-life-threatening injuries. The RCIPS said that the victim and the two assailants were known to each other but a spokesperson did not confirm that robbery was the motive, as had been suggested on local social media posts. The victim was stabbed in the upper thigh, according to images circulating in the aftermath of the incident, but no other details have been confirmed.

“ punish them to the full extent of the law”…. really……you know where we are right?
The full extent of the law here is a pinch of the cheek. Latest case…Paulette Anglin……thief….acquitted. Just the latest in a long line of wasting money on these cases when you know the outcomes before they start.
Im just wo dering. When the p9lice drive around in an A/C car with the window wibd up. Are they still able to hear a victim scream?
“Little Kingston”… umm, no – more like “Little London”.
And it’s those from Jamaica terrorizing London knifing everyone.
While this is a terrible event it is obviously not a random crime.
Unfortunately crime will keep getting worse as long as there’s no RCIPS presence anywhere on the road… it’s still not happening folks wake up.
Wake up? The police can’t be everywhere! This is to do with how kids are brought up and nothing to do with police.. If your kids leave the house with a knife someone is going to get hurt! If they don’t know wrong from right it is the fault of the parent… not the school nor the the police.. The parent! They learn their morals, their code of conduct from you.. You should be their North on their moral compass.. They will copy you if you are strong enough! Their role models should be their folks and not the local thugs.. Only one person needs to wake up here I’m afraid!
Duh! I get this but the parents I see here are, um, less than attentive or caring. I’m merely pointing out that the cops aren’t anywhere! I know they can’t be everywhere but they could be doing something. They aren’t.
This is so sad. What is happening to the crime-free Cayman that once existed? I hope the attacker is punished to the full extent of the law, as well as all those who take no thought in breaking the law and posing threat to another human’s life. Their stupid mentality have to stop! May the courts now help them comply with the law 100% !
I hope the victim makes a full recovery and his attacker has to admit to everything!
Crime-free? You mean back in the days before air service was available. Back in the turtling and rope making days? Back when the men went to sea for income?
Hun, I’ve been here since 1989 and there was crime back then. That was back when they downplayed and never publicized the crime. But trust me, I know first hand of rape, hit-and-run, several robberies/break-ins. First hand experience.
Wake up. Those days will never be seen again. Check Little Cayman though. They might be crime free these days.
At 11:27am – I’m not sure what you hoped to gain by portraying as if Cayman was not in more recent years – still a safe place. I was born here and I KNOW what I’m talking about. Yes there was the one-off – here and there but never like it is now.
My point being – criminals need to stop their senseless behavior and when they are caught breaking the law – they then need to be punished to the full extent of the law!!!
I remember a relatively crime free Cayman. There is no doubt a substantial element of what we now suffer is either imported or a consequence of relatively recent failures in both our education and immigration systems. Alden? Over to you.
How a out adding parents to the list
You been here too long with that stink attitude. Why don’t you go back where you came from?
Here comes that comment again. Always with the go back… you need to learn you won’t win an argument with that. It’s ignorant and OLD.
It actually wins every time because every single time some expat insults the Cayman Islands that same expat is in the Cayman Islands because their own country is a shithole in comparison.
Facts bruv, check the statistics!
No…just for the money
Little Cayman crime free? That’s where the drug importers live.
You know something the cops don’t know?
we all do
The cops know.
Only One There!!!!!!!!!!
Little Kingston it has become. Too many on Work Permits and making Cayman/Jamaican babies they walk away from, of which many are now young adults.
You half idiot, Honduras etc all have a crime problem and majority of the crimes committed are Caymanian. Not half, quarter, paper or some other lame attempt to hide the facts.
cayman hasn’t been crime free since the 1500s
Since Colombus the espanito pirate discowered us huh??
