Chequon Rashad Austin has admitted to stabbing a co-worker in the neck.
The 29-year-old general worker of Bonaire Land, Cave Hill will reappear in the District ‘A’ Traffic Court next week when his victim, James Moore, is expected to appear.
Austin pleaded guilty to unlawfully and maliciously wounding Moore on February 5.
Court prosecutor Sergeant St Clair Philips told the court that the two were not on speaking terms and were involved in a dispute earlier in the day.
Moore left work and while walking along Lears Road, Austin approached him from behind. The two got into another argument, which turned physical. Austin took a knife from his pants pocket and stabbed Moore at the side of his neck. Moore was transported to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital and received medical treatment.
Releasing Austin on $4 000 bail with a surety, Magistrate Alison Burke adjourned the matter until February 12 when the virtual complainant has been asked to appear.
